Meeting in Rome

This week held another meeting, this time in Rome, Italy.

This meeting with all partners was very productive.The meeting selected the nine skills that a manager must possess, and which will be the topics of training course.

Now is the time to create the educational tools to help these skills in future courses.

Porter's forces tool

Hello everyone,

Today we are presenting a tool that can be used in the training sessions. It is finishing development, and we are looking for your comments and suggestions.
This tool allows a teacher to organize discussion in topics such as Porter's forces (strategies / threats) so that trainees/students can play with it to develop models of opposing forces. The tool has an arrow in the center. Above and below this arrow, there are several small cylinders, which are used to define the strength of downward forces (threats) and the strength of upward forces (strategies).

How to use it?

Easy! You'll see T-shaped buttons. Clicking on them will pop up an area where you can place text, so that all participants know what a specific force represents. To enter text in this area, you only need to chat after clicking the T, following the instructions provided. For instance, if after clicking the T it says "type /99 text", you can chat:

/99 The threat of substitute products or services

...and this will display "The threat of substitute products or services" in the force column.

At any moment, one can click on the cilinders that compose a force column, and that indicates how strong it is. Filled (painted) cilinders represent the force's strength, empty (transparent) cilinders are ignored. As discussion evolves, simply click them.

The central arrow will tilt down or up, according to the strengths of all downward and upward forces, so you can create models where forces even out (and the arrow is balanced), or where the arrow tilts down (downward forces are stronger than upward forces) or tilts up (upward forces are stronger than downward forces).

Basically, it's an interactive graphic which you can use in discussion and then take a screenshot in the end to illustrate some final text on what was discussed.

Please leave your comments.

First Version of Library

Hi everbody,

Today I present to you the first version of the library of Vita Campus. The idea of this building is to use an architecture of palace.

So here are some pictures. Note that is not complete, is the first version!

This is the front of the building with several windows, it´s very atractive.

The next picture shows the first floor of the library. In this floor there are a few sofas where visitors can speak about the classes. The are also some decorative bookcases.

On the second floor, there is a small meeting area with a huge plasma tv to project images or video.

The connection between these two floors is made through these stairs.

I hope you enjoy this first version, and please leave your opinion!

The last one small classroom

Hello partners!

This post is about one more VITA classroom of our campus that I want show you.
This classroom have been built inspired in two romanian architectures:

The first is the tradicional architecture (the tower is the mark)...


... the other achictecture is more modern, present in one romanian recent building (look at, for example, the walls arrangement).


In the first floor, we have a living room with sofas for the trainees sit and talking. On left, next to the door, we have also a placard with important information.


In second floor we have one classroom with one board and one small table in the middle.


In the second floor yet, we have a place prepared for conferences, debates, or basically for training on roundtable.


In outside of second floor, we have a nice balcony.


The access between the floors can be done by the stairs, inside the tower.


Finally, in roof, we have a information for the avatars landing.


I hope that you like and I'm waiting for feedback comments!
