Application Students and the professional field have their say

Let students and the professional field contribute.

For a school plan, educational innovation or consultation with the professional field, one dialogue lets you hear many stakeholders at once, in their own words and with their own ideas.

The occasion Participation in education

You want to involve students, teachers, parents or the professional field in plans or choices.

What you achieve
  • Input from large groups of students or stakeholders
  • Ideas with support per group
  • Demonstrable involvement in plans and choices

Student councils and panels are valuable, but reach only a small share of those involved. A survey shows what people think, but not why.

In an anonymous dialogue, students, teachers or partners from the professional field respond to each other's ideas. That way you discover what is broadly supported and where groups think differently.

The approach 3 steps

From question to a next step people stand behind

We guide every step. What we mainly ask of you is substance: two meetings beforehand and a co-moderator during the session.

  1. Step 1

    Question and groups

    Together we decide the question and which groups should take part, such as students, teachers or the professional field.

  2. Step 2

    The dialogue

    Participants take part anonymously, respond to each other's ideas and vote on what they consider important.

  3. Step 3

    Outcome and follow-up

    You see per group what is broadly supported and can use the outcome in plans and accountability.

From three core values to recognisable behaviour

More than 700 employees each described what a new culture means in their everyday work. The result became a culture compass.

Care organisation Westerkim shifted its focus from care to residents' wellbeing. Employees, volunteers and family helped determine the direction.

Questions about participation in education

Is your question not listed? Ask it in an introductory call.

Does this also work with large groups of students?

Yes. Hundreds to thousands of participants can join at the same time, without the conversation getting bogged down.

Can we use this for quality assurance?

The report shows who was involved and what is broadly supported. That can contribute to the substantiation of plans and improvements.

Can international students take part in their own language?

Yes. Thanks to real-time translation everyone takes part in their own language, with more than 120 languages mixed together in one session.

Four application areas

Every application works with the same live dialogue.

Ask one question of everyone it concerns

In a demo we show you how your question works as a dialogue: what you ask, who you invite and what you'll have at the end.
