Organisational Development through Learning Simulations

pixelfountain delivers innovative training courses and provides licences of  learning simulations (serious games) to local councils, public sector organisations and the private sector.

Licences

Our licenced learning simulations are easy to use and can be utilised in your  programmes such as: management training, induction, team building, partnership building, organisational development and recruitment. The prices of learning simulations represent excellent value for money. The learning simulations are provided with a trainer guide, worksheets and support exercises to get the most out of them.

Workshops

Our learning simulations  and strategy, planning and collaboration tools to bring clarity to complex problems. In our programmes, delegates ‘experience’ the real-world; where they see the big picture, understand cause and effect, and together develop win-win solutions. This approach creates dialogue & builds relationships.

Blending the best of traditional and interactive learning, our approach has been used in over 450 workshops  to successfully train more than 6,500 individuals. We have delivered learning programmes in local councils, public sector, housing associations, community & voluntary sector and the private sector. Long–term evaluation of our learning simulation approach has shown that the immediate benefits translate into changed behaviour, better decision making and improved skills, which ultimately are incorporated into organisational improvements.

Games Based Learning

pixelfountain has utilised its education experience (delivery and consultancy) in setting up a new games based learning venture called games-ED.

games-ED provides innovative, teacher-led collaborative games based learning.  Our programmes support: subject understanding; personal, learning & thinking skills; and cross curriculum dimensions. They support multiple learning styles and build on the principle that learning can be fun. The games are easy to deliver and provide interactive / experiential learning that promotes collaboration, enables problem solving and accelerates learning. Our games based learning resource page explains more on the theory of the learning approach.

Flexible Learning

Our games based learning can support subjects such as: Enterprise, Geography, Health and Social Care, PSHE, Science and Sociology in the Key Stage 2-4 Curriculum. They can also be used in Further and Higher Education in courses such as Business Studies, Environmental Courses, Economics, Geography, and Planning / Policy.

They also provide an innovative way to deliver whole school activities such as Eco-Schools and Sustainable Schools or staff training / team building.
