Anki is a flashcard tool for learning and memorising words, expressions, facts, and more through repetition. Users can create their own flashcard decks or download pre-made ones from the AnkiWeb platform and start learning. Anki supports text, audio, image, and video. While an account is not required to use the tool, syncing across devices does require one. Anki can be downloaded on computers, laptops, and smartphones. Anki was developed by Damien Elmes.
Bewertung: Anki is a valuable tool for memorising facts and words, thus being useful for any subject or language. Students can use it to record and save unknown words in their target language and later test their knowledge, while teachers can share flashcards with their students to study individually at home or recreate a quiz in the classroom by creating a flashcard deck with specific questions. Downloading suitable flashcard decks made and shared by other users can save lots of time and is a remarkable way to benefit from an unselfish community of language learners and enthusiasts. Since Anki also supports video and audio, it can be used for enhancing pronunciation, although it is mainly designed for vocabulary acquisition.
Kosten: Free to use without registration on all operating systems except for iOS, where there is a one-time fee of $24.99.
