GBStukent Rocks! Skukent's online materials are good and up to date. The simulations give students real-world results and help them understand the amount of work that goes into planning a social media campaign. Their customer service is beyond great. I wish they had more classes available.

GBCan’t recommend Stukent enough!!! I’m SO thankful for Stukent!! Can’t recommend it enough! Using Mimic Social in college really helped direct me to the right career path and I reflect on what I learned through it often. I’ve learned more from this one simulation than any other textbook or courseware I’ve ever used in any college class. Thank you Stukent for everything!! Don’t know where I’d be without it.

GBThe Mimic Social Simulation updates are… The Mimic Social Simulation updates are amazing! I appreciate how rounds are broken into categories, budgets are changed accordingly, and students get a real-world view of being a social media marketing manager. I am disappointed with the instructor provided content. The PowerPoint slides are filled with typos and grammar errors and there is no consistency in formatting. If I want to use parts of these slides, I have to completely rebuild each chapter. The test banks contain all questions already provided in the quizzes, have no application questions, and do not use Blooms taxonomy to scale for higher level thinking. Stukent is on the right track with their materials and they can easily be updated to be more useful for faculty.

GBHalf way thru the course Half way thru the course, there was an issue with tech and a new book was uploaded that thru off all the chapters, quizzes etc. making it difficult for the students to follow, take tests in timely manner etc. It was completely confusing. The client services team was responsive, but said it was a development update and there was nothing that could be done. In the future, I would have the dev team be in concert with teams to know that a textbook was in current use prior to doing any updates that could affect the text book etc.

GBI LOVED the previous Stukent format… I LOVED the previous Stukent format with posting and analytics rounds. I used it for two years and can't say enough how awesome it was! For high school students, the analytics rounds were where they truly gained the insights they needed to improve. The new version has no analytics rounds and I am incredibly disappointed. Please add the analytics rounds back in. High school students have no way to dive into social media analytics other than this tool. While students can still simulate posting, without forcing them to examine the analytics they quite simply won't likely do it on their own.
