Qualli.life Strength & Weakness

WHAT IS Qualli.life Strengh & Weakness?

Within the CRM programme Quallilife there is the option to do a strengths/weaknesses analysis. It serves as a means for quantifiable assessment of a participant’s basic competencies. The system is customizable to the needs of the educational institution and their projects and should therefore be configured before first use. It can be helpful in the context of career orientation and profiling and is a relatively simple multiple choice system.

EXAMPLES

The analysis of strengths and weaknesses can be a part of profiling and can be carried out for example at the beginning of a project with participants. It can be used to identify and visualise basic competences, competences (areas) and indicators. This can be done again at a later stage, for example to check learning progress in qualification measures.

"We use the strengths and weaknesses analysis in our projects. These are adapted in each case. This makes the need for support visible. The findings from the strengths and weaknesses analysis are also very helpful for us when planning and searching for suitable internships."

Miro

WHAT IS Miro?

Miro is an online whiteboard that can be used collaboratively. Its features include simple brainstorming, mindmaps, diagrams, structured evaluation discussions, flowcharts, activities for events etc. Through countless shared templates from Miro and its users, you can be inspired and adapt them to your own needs without much effort. In this way, numerous use cases can be found for which Miro is suitable and helpful, even for internal cooperation and job coaching.

EXAMPLES

1) Miro can be used well for structured evaluation interviews, as it is easy to use and the graphic presentation is clear and appealing. Thus, a structure can be worked out (or taken from among the countless templates), which is then filled with content during the discussion.

2) For work tasks that require participants to make rule-based decisions, a tree diagram can be a supportive visual aid. For example, if letters have to be enveloped according to their weight and size, but participants cannot see both factors at the same time, such an easy-to-create diagram can facilitate the step-by-step process of deciding on the appropriate envelope.

"Miro is an intuitive tool for preparing content graphically alone or collaboratively with others. It helps us in project planning as well as in working with participants in the workplace."

Todoist

WHAT IS todoist?

Todoist is a collaborative task-and project management tool to organise and visualise to-do lists. It saves time by a simple assignment of tasks, especially when it involves multiple clients, colleagues and/or teams.

EXAMPLES

As we simultaneously work across many different (sub-)teams, Todoist cuts out a lot of verbal communication about the simple assignment of tasks, status reports etc. When used by a large number of staff members, it standardises how things are organised and visually highlights what still needs to be completed.
Colleagues can also decide to include their clients into their Todoist-projects, to ensure transparency.

"In addition to other tools such as Meistertask, Microsoft To-Do etc., ToDoist has many more options to prioritise, schedule and assign tasks, sub-tasks and sub-sub-tasks… That makes it ideal for even specific collaborative management, not only "rough project management". You can also choose to switch between Kanban- and List-structure for every project."
