cost-effective
trusted education performance
SEE IT! DO IT! FEEL IT!® works with three different packs of cards: “abstract”, “difference”, and “values”. “Abstract” and “difference” contain images and pictures, whereas the “values” pack of cards presents written values. In assembling the packs of cards, we chose visuals which elicit reactions on different levels. Some cards work on an affective level and provoke an immediate emotional response, as e.g. sympathy or antipathy. Others address the cognitive level and encourage interpretation and attributing of meaning.

SEE IT! DO IT! FEEL IT!® is an innovative tool developed in cooperation with Vienna University. Funding from the Austrian government supported the collaboration and realization. The game provides a dynamic environment for learning and development. It generates lasting results and insights, leading to a significant and enduring impact on individuals’ value systems.
In order to guarantee high quality standards, SEE IT! DO IT! FEEL IT!® was realized 2012 in co-operation with the research area “Visual Studies in the Social Sciences” at Vienna University, represented by research expert Dr. Petra Bernhardt. Her contributions supported the integration of visual elements into the training concept.
Because of the highly innovative character of the project, research and development were funded by Austria Wirtschaftsservice Gesellschaft mbH (aws) – the promotional bank of the Austrian federal government and by FFG, the Austrian Research Promotion Agency.
The effectiveness of SEE IT! DO IT! FEEL IT!® was tested over three years in multiple research labs on culture and identity building. We worked on cultural theories and values-driven identity building, visuals and language use, semiotics, semantics, conflicts, humour and metaphors.
