3Mind Writing - An Asynchronous, Deliberate Practice, Virtual Learning Experimental Development Project

由于COVID-19，英国慈善机构正面临前所未有的挑战。在2020年6月至8月期间，他们的帮助需求增加了72%（筹款研究所），与此同时，他们的慈善捐款大幅减少，预计未来六个月的资金缺口为101亿英镑（公益经济学分析）。他们迫切需要找到其他收入来源。与此同时，对已经受到挑战的地方当局卫生和社会保健预算的压力增加了。随着志愿者队伍的壮大，慈善机构能够为公共部门提供最大的价值；然而，他们缺乏在投标书中传达这一点的技能和经验。十多年来，我们一直为英国客户提供投标书撰写服务。通过应用我们独特的3Mind Writing(r)方法，我们的客户获得了超过80%的我们帮助他们投标的项目，每年赢得超过10亿英镑的合同。我们的目标是创建一个虚拟学习平台，过程和内容，在异步学习环境中推动深思熟虑的反思练习，而不需要导师/促进者的干预。**如果成功，这将使慈善行业的人获得他们需要的高级投标书写作技巧，以竞争并可靠地赢得现有的合同机会。这一概念超越了传统的电子学习方法，即允许学习者获得对主题的理解，而是创建了一个系统，该系统使用最新的见解来有意识地练习，通过学习过程实际建立用户的能力和竞争力。

UK charities are facing unprecedented challenges due to COVID-19\. They have seen a 72% increase in demand for their help during June-August 2020 (Institute of Fundraising Research) and at the same time seen a dramatic reduction in their charitable donations, with a projected £10.1 billion funding gap over the next six months (Pro Bono Economics Analysis). They have an urgent need to find alternative sources of income. At the same time the pressure on already challenged Local Authority health and social care budgets has increased. With a workforce augmented by volunteers, Charities are able to offer best value to the public sector; however they lack to skill and experience to convey this within their tenders.For over a decade we have been providing tender writing services to clients in the UK. Through the application of our unique 3Mind Writing(r) approach our clients have secured over 80% of the tenders we helped them bid for, resulting in over £1Bn of contract wins per annum.Our aim is to create a virtual learning platform, process and content that **drives deliberate reflective practice within an asynchronous learning environment, without the need for mentor/facilitator intervention.** If successful this will enable people in the charity sector acquire the advanced tender writing skills they need to compete for, and reliably win, the contract opportunities that exist. The concept moves beyond traditional eLearning approaches which allow learners to acquire understanding of a subject, instead creating a system that uses the latest insights into deliberate practice to actually builds users' capability and competence through the learning process.
