GBTeacher - Personal Finance and Accounting Great experience with Skudent Mimic Social High School. Used as part of my Intro to Business and Marketing class. Kids really enjoyed it. I am now teaching Personal Finance and Accounting so I will review the Personal Finance module next year. Thx Nick

GBMy students love the simulation! My students are enjoying the simulation. They like the idea of getting paid every Monday and having bills due on Friday. They also love the Life Happens activities. They look forward to the performance reviews so they can earn raises and raise their credit scores. They watch the stock market to see if they are earning or losing over time. I think this is reinforcing the skills we are learning in class.

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.

GBMy students continually have problems… My students continually have problems logging in - the platform keeps them looping and looping and kicks them out. My other issue is with the guided notes. There are numerous inconsistencies between the instructor's version and the student's version - different questions, not in the same order, etc. Someone needs to go through each of those to verify they have the same content. I would also like the most up-to-date information. Social media has definitely changed since in the past five years, and some of the statistics are out of date. I am currently in the process of searching for a new platform to teach the class.

GBI really prefer this program over the… I really prefer this program over the other budgeting activities I have done. It is the most real-world program I have used and it throws in the unexpected, which parallels real-life. The students enjoy it. Further, I am not a tech-savvy teacher. Their support team is responsive, knowledgeable, and friendly.
