Strategy Development

If you want to start something new, to change things in a sustainable way and if you want to guide this change you need strategy development.  Strategy development needs a multi-perspective view on and around an organization (strategic thinking), as well as the use of concrete instruments and concepts (strategic management). It follows a phase-based concept, which delivers answers to questions of meaning, norm, function and institution of an organization.

With our training course, we try to identify questions, which are important for schools, especially for the public sector. Our approach might sometimes differ from an economic one, due to the different conditions. Nevertheless, we would like to guide you through a path that enables you to develop your own Masterplan.

The SDD modules lead to answers for all related questions. The use of digital devices based on wise didactical and methodological decisions aims a change in learning and teaching structure. Organizing lessons by implementing digital media means more than using a beamer or checking e-mails during lessons. Digital media has many opportunities to change the teaching style to enlarge students’ motivation to learning. This needs a constructivist view on learning itself: students are creators of their learning, knowledge and skills, not as consumers. Due to that axiom, teaching has to address learning by methods, which activate students. Example approaches are self-organized or cooperative learning which allow students to make their own experiences. Teachers become facilitators within those activating environments (Hattie, 2010).
