Hello friends, I hope you are having a nice day. For a long time, I have believed in the union of technology and education. Today, I want to show you an application I discovered some time ago that combines an excellent learning ecosystem with gamification of knowledge. An excellent way to expand our culture and our memory.

Official Website

As a teacher, I have always tried to include technology in educational processes. Specifically, educational applications have become a very useful and essential tool for autonomous learning.

The application I share with you today is called Kinnu. At first glance, it introduces us to the universe of knowledge, or as it is called in the application itself, Kinnuverse. Today I share my personal and sincere experience about why this is an excellent choice and how it helps non-native English speakers by facilitating reading comprehension and fluency.

Welcome to the Kinnuverse

Kinnu stands out both for its focus on broad, quality education and its careful design. With Kinnu, I have expanded my knowledge, but since it is entirely in English, it has made me read in this language, improve my vocabulary, and comprehension. Additionally, after each reading, we can access quizzes to see how well we have acquired the knowledge.

The interface of Kinnu, since I started using it, has undergone several changes always for the better, showing itself to be intuitive and easy to use, both in navigation gestures and in the presentation of content. From the first moment, we feel comfortable exploring all its readings and resources.

The Kinnuverse covers a large number of topics grouped by areas of knowledge: History, Art, Philosophy, Sciences, etc. There is no branch of knowledge that is not present, maintaining above all an interesting and relevant learning experience.

Focusing also on interactive lessons, in Kinnu each lesson will end up actively involving you because each piece of knowledge will be reinforced through lessons in various formats, helping us retain information over time.

We will also have detailed graphs analyzing our time and use of the application and how we have progressed in each lesson. Additionally, it will notify us when a long time has passed since we studied a lesson and how soon we might forget it.

Each section is designed on its own to stimulate curiosity, building solid learning paths that we can see graphically. Additionally, the knowledge base is regularly updated. Highly recommended are the lessons on mental health, sleep science, habits, and history.

In general, the lessons are short and easy to follow, but they still have strong scientific backing with citations to sources, professionals, and articles from specialized media.

Since I started using it, without a doubt, I have noticed an improvement in my areas of knowledge, besides helping with my vocabulary and reading fluency. I have had fun and learned with just an average of 5 to 15 minutes daily. As its developers say, it can be addictive. If you are a non-native English speaker and want to go a bit further, I highly recommend this option, and if you have already tried it, I would love to hear about your experiences.

I sincerely want to thank you for taking the time to read this article. Your support means a lot to me and motivates me to continue sharing content that can be useful and interesting for you. If you found this article helpful or enjoyed reading it, I would greatly appreciate your feedback. Best wishes.

Doble aprendizaje con Kinnu

Hola amigos, espero que estén teniendo un lindo día. Desde hace mucho tiempo, creo en la unión de la tecnología y la educación. Hoy quiero mostrarles una aplicación que descubrí hace un tiempo y que combina un excelente ecosistema de aprendizaje con la gamificación del conocimiento. Una excelente forma para ampliar nuestra cultura y nuestra memoria.

Official Website

Como docente, siempre he tratado de incluir la tecnología en los procesos educativos. En específico, las aplicaciones educativas se han convertido en una herramienta muy útil y esencial para el aprendizaje autónomo.

La aplicación que les comparto hoy se llama Kinnu. Desde un primer vistazo, nos introduce al universo del conocimiento, o como se llama en la propia aplicación, Kinnuverse. Hoy les comparto mi experiencia personal y sincera sobre por qué esta es una excelente elección y cómo a los hablantes no nativos del inglés nos ayuda doblemente, facilitando la comprensión lectora y la fluidez.

Bienvenidos al Kinnuverse

Kinnu destaca tanto por su enfoque en la educación de calidad y amplia como en su diseño cuidado. Con Kinnu, he expandido mis conocimientos, pero debido a que está completamente en inglés, me ha hecho leer en este idioma, mejorar mi vocabulario y comprensión. Además, después de cada lectura, podemos acceder a cuestionarios para ver qué tan bien hemos obtenido los conocimientos.

La interfaz de Kinnu, desde que soy usuario, ha recibido varios cambios siempre a favor, mostrándose intuitiva y fácil, tanto en los gestos de navegación como en la presentación del contenido. Desde el primer momento, nos sentimos cómodos explorando todas sus lecturas y recursos.

El Kinnuverse abarca una gran cantidad de temas agrupados por áreas del conocimiento: Historia, Arte, Filosofía, Ciencias, etc. No hay rama del conocimiento que no esté presente, manteniendo sobre todo un aprendizaje interesante y relevante.

Enfocado también en lecciones interactivas, en Kinnu cada lección terminará involucrándote activamente porque cada conocimiento será reforzado a través de lecciones de diversos formatos, ayudándonos a retener la información a lo largo del tiempo.

También contaremos con gráficas detalladas del análisis de nuestro tiempo y uso de la aplicación, y cómo hemos avanzado en cada lección. Además, nos avisará cuando ha pasado tiempo desde que estudiamos una lección y en cuánto tiempo podríamos olvidarla.

Cada sección está diseñada por sí sola para estimular la curiosidad, construyendo sólidas rutas de aprendizaje que podremos ver de forma gráfica. Además, la base de conocimientos se actualiza con regularidad. Muy recomendadas son las lecciones de salud mental, ciencias del sueño, hábitos e historia.

Por lo general, las lecciones son cortas y fáciles de seguir, pero esto no les impide tener un fuerte respaldo científico con citas a fuentes, profesionales y artículos de medios especializados.

Desde que la utilizo, sin dudas, he notado una mejora en mis áreas del conocimiento, además de haberme ayudado con mi vocabulario y fluidez en la lectura. Me he divertido y he aprendido con tan solo una media de 5 a 15 minutos diarios. Como dicen sus propios desarrolladores, puede crear adicción. Si eres hablante no nativo de inglés y quieres ir un poco más allá, te recomiendo encarecidamente esta opción. Y si ya la has probado, me encantaría escuchar tus experiencias.

Quiero agradecerles sinceramente por tomarse el tiempo de leer este artículo. Su apoyo significa mucho para mí y me motiva a seguir compartiendo contenido que pueda ser útil e interesante para ustedes. Si encontraron este artículo útil o disfrutaron leyéndolo, les agradecería enormemente sus comentarios. Éxitos.

That looks very coool! I will download it it to test it thanks for sharing it!!

I hope you find the app useful and enjoy using it!

With AI and free apps, I can't think why anyone will ever justify ignorance. Even when school was far, or teachers where ass. Where is your phone? AI language teachers and what is called, 'micro learning' apps should be enough to at least fill your brain with information that will make you remember the most important facts and math you need to be a functional human being in society and more.

I agree, with so many resources available today, learning has become incredibly easy. I believe we have an abundance of resources but often lack the time to utilize them fully.

I think we lack the will and discipline.
