The goal was clear: The Significantly increase data literacy within the company. The rise of data literacy in today's business environment is not just a wish, but a necessity to stay competitive and effectively harness the power of data.
Gamification as the key to learning
Our response to this challenge was to implement Gamification as a stand-alone staff training programme. We developed the AI Adventure, a Online game (in the form of a website)In a similar way to an Escape Room, groups of 5 players solve exciting puzzles and learn about the basics of data and AI along the way.
By integrating the concept into our training, we ensured a High engagement rate and a motivating learning environment. However, the game alone was only the first step. A subsequent debriefing, designed as a follow-up session, picked up the most important concepts from the game, linked them and deepened the participants' knowledge.
