The students appreciate this ease of use as well\!" — 5.0/5 > **Joshua** | *12 October 2017* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The interface is intuitive, customer service (when I do have a question or problem) has been excellent\! Also much nicer graphics and visual layouts than other learning management systems I've used in the past. > > Easier time managing university level course, lectures resources, coursework and feedback. ----- ### "MDST project making use of Kannu" — 5.0/5 > **Vicky** | *3 February 2017* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to manage and develop. > > **Cons**: Hard for teachers to navigate with their students. > > This is a multilingual digital storytelling project (https://goldsmithsmdst.wordpress.com) that works with multiple schools in the UK and overseas and has as its key partners the BFI, British Museum, Museum of London and NRCSE. We have used Kannu to set up a safe shared place for schools, their teachers and students. We have been using kannu with the teachers for just over a year and we have found where teachers make the time to engage with the platform, upload sessions and keep a clear ongoing record of their work that the platform facilitates this. We have carried out regular training sessions with teachers on the use of kannu and emphasising the importance of getting their students online and critiquing and commenting on other digital stories. However, we are still finding it hard to facilitate this. At the moment teachers are more focused on the work in preparing the students in creating their digital stories and they have not given as much time to getting their students logged on and critiquing the stories of others. They have tended to do this as a group activity in the classroom where the teacher selects a range of digital stories that the children respond to orally and in small groups. We are working across a large age range from 8 - 18 years old. We also wanted to set up an e-portfolio or reflective journal on the kannu site and this is not yet possible. We set up a survey that some of the students completed but again this was hard to implement across all the schools. We have found it a very good platform but some teachers have found it hard to navigate. ----- ### "LMS looks very clean" — 4.0/5 > **Matt** | *18 October 2017* | Music | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Look. It was easy to navigate for the most part. I really enjoyed how easy it was to setup the logins and for students to instantly gain access. > > **Cons**: Could be streamlined in a few ways to optimize the learning space. Would be nice to be able to customize the look of the sessions a bit further or at least have a few options to choose from. ----- ### "Awesome for teaching art and design" — 5.0/5 > **Natalie** | *22 January 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The gallery module is perfect for online critiques. Makes such a difference for online art and design instruction. No other Learning Management System offers an elegant solution for this. I also appreciate how easy it is to populate my content with dates to control student visibility. I also appreciate the contemporary UI. Received a lot of focused attention and support. > > **Cons**: Smaller company so there is not a lot of personnel on hand for support but this issue will improve as the company grows. > > Support staff are very helpful when able to address tickets. The built in system guidance made a huge difference in helping new faculty learn to organize content online. Was able to develop a consistent relationship with the vendor because it is a small company. ----- ### "Ali Akbar College of Music Uses Kannu" — 4.0/5 > **Mary** | *18 August 2016* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The setup was easy to understand because of the personal training session I received, and Kannu's customer service is amazing. When issues have arisen their response has been prompt and the follow through has been quick. They were responsive to the needs of our school and tailored a few sections the way we needed things to run. Honestly, what I like the most about Kannu is the end product. Our students are happy with it, and it has made the handling of our class webinars neat and efficient. > > **Cons**: When we first started, back in February 2016, there were a few bugs in the system that needed to be worked out. However, Kannu has just launched, so I wasn't surprised by it. 7 months later, many positive changes have taken place and things have evened out for us. > > This is the first time we have used a product to manage our online class webinars, and we are enjoying the simplicity of the final product that our students interact with. In the past, our interaction with our students was primarily through emails, and sorting through the emails to find lessons was cumbersome. We don't actually use many of the features Kannu offers, mostly because of the size of our organization, but what we do use has streamlined our webinar interactions with the students in a very beneficial way. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/32484/kannu?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/32484/kannu) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
