Saarbrücken, Graz, Jan. 16, 2015 − According to recent surveys, 7.5 million working-age men and women living in Germany do not have an adequate basic education and are unable to read, write or calculate properly. How can these fundamental skills be taught to target adults?
The German KES-group asked itself precisely this question. Since 2007, the association has supported the public and corporate sector by developing innovative strategies within the areas of education and consulting. The network aims to modernize the structures and processes in the areas mentioned above by implementing the latest research and communication technologies. In their collaboration with full-service provider IMC, the network has found a competent partner which shares their passion for modern technologies.
The result of the cooperation is a video-based simulation learning program which offers demand and practice oriented qualifications focused on the needs of the respective target group.
“eVideo 2.0” maps the virtual world of a transport and logistics company which will be first applied and tested in the Federal States Berlin and Brandenburg,” said Björn Schulz, assistant project manager at KES-group. “The idea of delivering the project as a web-based learning game is unique in this field and for the target group.”
The learner becomes part of the daily routine and helps their colleagues to handle various tasks by communicating with them via interactive buttons or by solving interactive problems. As a result, the learner acquires fundamental capabilities within a typical workplace scenario. The concept can also be applied to other contexts. It is currently in implementation for use in hotels and restaurants.
