As a management tool it facilitates the communication among professionals of the organisation from different departments. Every team can create a dashboard and include cards with information to share, such as:

Padlet

WHAT IS Padlet?

“Padlet” provides digital whiteboards with various templates on which texts, pictures, videos, links, voice recordings, screen recordings and drawings can be stored. Collaborative work can be done on the boards and every change or edit on a pinboard can be followed live. A Padlet Board can be made available to everyone via a web-link or QR code.

EXAMPLES

1) Develop and structure workshops and course planning together, e.g. with the timeline template. This can provide a good overview for all colleagues involved but also for the learners.

2) Create a wiki on specific topics/contents, for example: Procedure for participation in Supported Employment

"We find working together on a whiteboard extremely productive. The graphical representation and the timeline help us to keep an overview. We also like the integration of links, videos and other media. However, we are currently using an alternative because we are not satisfied with Padlet's data protection."

TaskCards

WHAT IS TaskCards?

TaskCards offers multiple digital boards and has a wide range of use cases. It can be used to store educational content that can be made available to clients in any place and at any time. Furthermore, it offers the possibility for remote teamwork, as well as individual work in classes, as well as for organisational topics.

EXAMPLES

1) Educational content can be stored and presented to clients. All types of content can be mixed, including text, videos, pictures, links or external tools. With an authoristion function, specific rights for reading and editing of content can be assigned to specific groups. That means, that you only have to provide one whiteboard, but you can share different links with – for example – more or less extensive difficulty. Or you can share one link, but activate content dynamically, when it is suitable.

2) To organise consultation days with job coaches, pedagogical assistants and clients, a board can be set up, where every time slot gets a different card. Further information like login data for video calls can be stored, as well.

"There are many more examples of how we use TaskCards in our organisation. We plan our collaborative teaching and collect ideas, we let participants work individually or collaboratively with TaskCards and we even started to think of creating portfolios. TaskCards is limited in it's functions, but that is precisely why it does what we want it to do."
