About World Geography and Regions
GoConqr OriginalWhat the page covers
This unit sits in the Regional Geography strand of Geography. It mixes two kinds of material. The first is world knowledge: continents, oceans, rivers, lakes, time zones and capital cities. The second is case-study regions, many of them tied to Leaving Certificate Geography.
- Europe: the Paris Basin, the Mezzogiorno and the notes on the North European Plain as a geomorphic region.
- Ireland: Dublin, the west of Ireland, the BMW region and a peripheral Irish region.
- Wider world: ASEAN, Sub-Saharan Africa, the African continent and Globalization and Diversity.
Where to start
If you need the basics, begin with the Continents mind maps and the Capital Cities flashcards. Then try the World Map quiz or the Continents and Oceans quiz to see what has stuck. Primary pupils may like the Geography Quiz - Key Stage 2.
If you are preparing for a regional question, pick one region and work through it in order. For the Paris Basin, read the mind map first, then the notes made from it, then use the LC Geography; Paris Basin flashcards.
Using maps, flashcards and quizzes together
- Read a mind map to see how a region's factors connect.
- Check the notes for detail. The Regions - Dublin notes cover climate, rainfall and the rain shadow effect.
- Drill facts with flashcards, such as the LC Geog; Mezzogiorno deck, which asks for its nickname, capital, islands and volcanoes.
- Finish with a quiz and note what you missed.
For Dublin, the Secondary Activities and Tertiary Activities mind maps split the economy into clear parts, such as ICT and tourism.
For AP and exam study
Students working on AP Human Geography can use the deck that covers countries, cities, rivers, lakes, chokepoints, deserts and world regions. Teachers can set quizzes such as World Geography Review as a class warm-up or a revision check.
Choose one region today, open its mind map, and see how much you can recall before you check the flashcards.
Frequently asked questions
Where should I start on this page?
For general knowledge, start with the Continents mind maps and a capitals deck, then take the World Map quiz. For a regional topic, choose one case study, such as the Paris Basin or the west of Ireland, and begin with its mind map before moving to flashcards.
Which exams do the resources mention?
The listed resources mention Leaving Certificate Geography, AP Human Geography and AP World History. Most of the material is at secondary level, so it suits school students revising for those courses, though you should always check your own syllabus.
What do the Irish region resources cover?
There are mind maps, notes, flashcards and slide sets on Dublin, the west of Ireland and the BMW region. They look at climate, farming, primary, secondary and tertiary activities, and the factors that shape each region's development.
Are these resources free, and who made them?
Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Can primary pupils use this page?
Yes, some of the material is aimed at younger learners, such as the Geography Quiz - Key Stage 2. Primary resources are a smaller share of the page, though, as most of it is written for secondary students.
What if I can't find the region I need?
Try the Regions and Regional geography mind maps, which give a wider view, or search the flashcards for related capitals and continents. You can also build your own mind map or deck for the missing region and use it for revision.
