What is Condiscere?

Condiscere is a collection of practical educational tools built around a simple idea: technology should make teaching and learning easier, not add needless complexity.

The name

Condiscere is a Latin verb meaning “to learn together” or “to learn with another.” It comes from con-, “together,” and discere, “to learn.” A simple Classical-Latin-style pronunciation is kon-DIS-keh-reh.

Condiscere Interactives

Condiscere Interactives provides browser-based biology models and simulations. Each activity is intended to help students explore a concept while making clear what the model represents and simplifies.

Classroom tools

Condiscere Classroom Manager provides lightweight utilities for everyday classroom use. Other Condiscere tools, including assessment and scheduling projects, are being developed around the same goal of focused, useful software.

The approach

Condiscere tools are built to solve specific problems clearly. Where possible, they avoid unnecessary accounts, advertising, tracking, and feature clutter. The goal is not to become one giant platform, but to make a set of tools that teachers and students can understand and use quickly.
