GoConqr is an online platform for creating and sharing educational resources such as mind maps, flashcards, quizzes, and more. Users create various learning materials using GoConqr's tools and templates, then share them with others or keep them private for personal use. While not specifically designed for linguistic skills, GoConqr can aid in language learning through flashcards, mind maps, and quizzes. GoConqr offers a limited free version and requires having an account to access and create content. It was designed by a team of educators and developers based in Ireland.
Evaluation: GoConqr is a valuable tool since it offers interactive study tools and collaborative features, fostering active learning and knowledge sharing. It can be especially suitable for study groups or classes, allowing for schedule organisation and file sharing. GoConqr can also help learners organise their materials, devise their own learning strategies and join open groups. Yet, one important downside of GoConqr is that only the paid option allows creating private courses and resources.
Cost: Free limited version with registration + paid plans available.
