A Universal Approach
Designed from inception as a universal approach to Challenge Based Learning, here are just some of the use cases that Applio can be applied to:
Soft Skills Development
It's not enough to 'know' things, to understand and apply them a range of soft skills from problem solving and situational judgement through to resilience and persistence are required. Applio CBL supports the development of these critical skills.
Knowledge Acquisition
By incorporating exisiting materials into the challenges, Applio can be used to not only impart knowledge but also practice the application of that knowledge. By asking learners to manipulate information in different ways it helps them build conceptual understanding too.
Behaviours and Norms
Multi-player features and scenario driven challenges allow the exploration of cultural behaviours and norms. The speed of content creation and deployment means you can explore different approaches to complex subjects.
Formative Assessment
Though not explicitly designed for asessment purposes, undertaking an Applio challenge is a safe and engaging way of checking understanding an progress. The analytics from challenge sessions can be utilised in a variety of different ways to provide insight.
Team Building
Building on the idea of behaviours and norms, Applio can support teams in develping thier effectiveness through all stages of the team formation process. It can be used in a 'walk a mile in my shoe' fashion too, to help teams understand the rolse and challenges of other teams.
Cohort Identity
It's known that being part of a supportive and coherent cohort of fellow learners can have a material effect on learner outcomes. Creating this type of identity is harder in a distributed world but Applio can assist in getting off to a good start and then maintianing momentum in building.
CPD
Don't let the casual game style interface fool you, Applio can be used for a variety of serious CPD topics. The ability to tailor content to your specific organisation means you can achieve high relevance and authenticity for your audience.
Organisational Change
Organisational change is complex and often flounders when an initial vision has to be operationalised and rolled out at scale. Consultants running workshops are both expensive and get in the way of the wider organisation taking ownership. Applio can help with these issues!
