A quick summary of the humble story of the two co-founders, Alexander Degenhardt and Noah Liebherr, of the EdTech platform ClassOwl.com.

(Excerpt from a blog post of award-winning international speaker, blogger, best-selling author, teacher, and school leader Mark Anderson!)

“The idea of ClassOwl was inspired by our experience with several EdTech tools used at our school in Switzerland. Fed up with having to remember 7 different logins for different applications and websites, we decided to take things into our own hands and come up with a platform that would not only be easier for us as students to use but should also save time for teachers. So during a free period in the school library, we outlined what our platform should do and which features it would offer. We saved up our pocket money to hire a programmer to develop a very basic version of ClassOwl that we then later used to pitch to investors. In fact, it’s still visible today at www.trial.cikumas.com.
It was always important to us, to create the best LMS, and classroom-friendly platform as possible. So when one of our teachers found out about ClassOwl and decided to invest, we knew that we were on the right path. A year later, ClassOwl is now a fully fledged, web-based LMS with interactive assignment functionalities with a growing user base of teachers from all over the world. Our vision still remains the same – to put our users at the heart of learning. This means, we are always improving and adding new features and functions to best suit teachers’ needs on a student-centric platform, and the core product will always remain free of charge to our users. Technology is reshaping the modern classroom and learning, and we want to make sure that this is done in a way that is inclusive of both teachers and students.” - Alexander Degenhardt
