Communication skills, Problem-solving skills, Teamwork skills, Organisational skills and Interpersonal skills - you can work on these skills with the SayIT app!

The learning resources are tailored to the needs of IT professionals instead of delivering generic training on soft skills. The training is predominately based on an innovative learning methodology of a visual novel. The app is divided into a practice mode and a training mode.

What does this mean?

The visual novel methodology is a game where the playable storyboards are prepared in a way where the player interacts with specific situations and therefore advances the novel to the following stages based on the choices made. The app generates the visual novel from the database of available storyboards. The practice mode also assesses the options made in a given graphic novel and presents the score along with the feedback.

The Visual Novel approach in the SayIT project takes advantage of mixing different storyboards, creating a unique (randomly selected) story every time the user opens the practice mode of the app. Each of the soft skills identified has a storyboard of 5 different situations – it depends on which competencies within your skill set the situations refer to. The Visual Novel randomly selects one screen from each activity, mixing them and thus offering a possibility of unique stories to which users can react.

The SayIT app is available for IOS and ANDROID devices in the App Store and Google Play. It is a free resource available in ENGLISH, POLISH, GERMAN, BULGARIAN, DUTCH, PORTUGUESE, SPANISH and GREEK.
