Review on Jackdaw by Sam Anez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very helpful tool for creating interactive courses

I like that it's easy to use, has lots of different templates/modules, can be used with any LMS or CMS (like Moodle), integrates well into other systems such as GitHub etc., quick access to content via links in emails from colleagues, ability to embed videos directly onto pages so they're not just available only when students navigate away. Some features are still buggy at this time but we hope these will improve soon! The pricing model makes sense - you get more modules per month than some comparable products do per year. We've been able to create many useful learning materials quickly using Jackdaw without needing additional staff training which was an issue previously where people would struggle to make simple changes themselves if required. There have also been times were things haven't worked quite how expected because something unexpected happens when testing our course; however support usually gets back within 48 hours sometimes even before then. For example one time there wasn't enough space left over once all items had.
