Anyone who follows the Swissteach blog has surely noticed: Swissteach is not just a company with experts in DIGITAL EMPLOYEE TRAINING, integrated learning, and CONSULTING. First and foremost, we have set ourselves a goal: to support organizations – whether companies, universities, or state institutions. Our focus is on people and their individual requirements and wishes.
We are passionate about E-LEARNING and our LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (LMS) Global Teach® and, in this context, we do everything to identify the needs and challenges of our customers, advise them professionally, and develop tailor-made solutions together with them as a team. In addition to the continuous development of our LMS GLOBAL TEACH®, our mission also includes other tasks – e.g. marketing. As in all our areas, we love to take unconventional paths, be pragmatic, and look at things from the perspective of the other party – whether customer, partner, user, or management. “Unconventional and easy to understand is what it must be!” That is our motto. This is how we design our materials and campaigns as simply as possible, with a lasting impression.
POSTCARDS – TOO MUCH 90s?
The best example of the above-mentioned credo is our postcards. Who hasn’t picked up meaningful cards somewhere? And let’s be honest: sayings and quotes are an integral part of social media. That’s how Swissteach started using the small communication aids a few years ago. We are extremely pleased that the idea of cheeky and to-the-point statements for everyday working life has ultimately become a hit. A popular and gladly taken give-away has quickly become an eye-catcher at trade fairs and other events, which puts a smile on the faces of many people and has found its place on numerous office refrigerators, screens, doors and – as this article will show – also universities.
SWISSTEACH & THE HANNOVER NURSING COLLEGE – ANALOG SUPPORT?
If you bring Swissteach and a nursing school together in your mind, you might first associate the topics of e-learning college, LMS at colleges, FH e-learning or e-learning in medicine or nursing. But at this point, the connection is much more pragmatic. In the end, of course, the motivation for learners is the focus:
Our postcards have found their way into vocational school lessons, as Ms. Antje Zenz, deputy head of the Hannover Nursing School, reported to us at this year’s LEARNTEC in Karlsruhe. The PFSH trains nurses in generalist training, as well as nursing assistants, and has approximately 200 trainees. Since a wide range of age groups meet here, a lot of creativity and methodical variety is required to meet the needs of the learners and to make the lessons as effective as possible. The cards have already been taken along as a give-away in recent years and were used for the first time in lessons.
“They offer a great opportunity to start a conversation with the trainees, who reflect on their practical assignments after their return with the help of the statements on the cards,” says Zenz. The meaningful statements made it easier for the trainees to classify their experiences and insights, review them, and also clearly identify points that they had NOT specifically experienced, the deputy headmistress continues. “In addition, the Hannover Nursing School is very keen to make the lessons varied and to use a variety of methods. Your cards with the cheeky statements come in handy!”, adds Zenz. The various motifs of the postcards fit various situations and immediately offer a practical basis for discussion.
On the cards you will find sayings such as “It’s running.”, “It doesn’t matter if it goes fast.”, or “Doing is like wanting – only more extreme.”
SWISSTEACH: THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX.
Motivation is crucial when it comes to learning. Whether in companies, universities or state institutions – without it, the learning success is impaired or not available at all.
We at Swissteach have understood this and bring several factors together in this context: On the one hand, we master the technology and offer a tailor-made solution for the implementation and execution of DIGITAL EMPLOYEE TRAINING with our LMS.
On the other hand, we always understand our craft in cooperation with our partners and customers. Challenges can only be mastered as a team and the requirements of our customers – no matter how complex – can be met. And if, in this context, our postcards can also make a contribution to increasing the learning success of our partners and customers, all the better.
Do you have any further questions about how you can increase your learning success with us and how we at Swissteach can support you with your individual requirements when introducing e-learning? Then CONTACT us today.
