Carlsen

We provided the Carlsen Verlag with our services for over ten years. Carlsen is part of the Swedish Bonnier Group and is a leading publisher in the children’s and youth literature sector, including publishers of the “Harry Potter” book series.

The centerpiece was the “Carl” title database that we developed. It served the internal publisher’s administration, but also provided the data for the website.

The special feature of the design of the website was, on the one hand, to address the very different target groups (from children and young adult book readers to manga fans) via sub and micro-sites, and on the other hand, to develop a comprehensive concept with recognition value based on Carlsen’s corporate identity.

Diakonie mobile

In 2012 we implemented the website relaunch for Diakonisches Werk Hamburg. Since then we have handled the continuous maintenance and further development. 2014 a mobile version was added.

The website is very user-friendly and its language is easy to understand. The target groups include not only people who are directly looking for advice and help but also users with specialized background knowledge and interested members of the public.

An important component is an address database that features more than 1,200 entries. It can be used to look for appropriate offers of help, for example, or available nursing home spaces in the vicinity.

Hochschulranking

Coinciding with the publication of the print edition of the ZEIT study guide, every year ZEIT ONLINE launches a new version of the CHE college ranking database. The ranking evaluates the quality of research and teaching at colleges as well as faculty development based on various criteria.

A variety of search approaches, such as by major, place of study and/or the user’s own compilation of evaluation criteria, give users the ability to create a customized overview of the various study programs and colleges.

These individual views are put together from a wide range of separate data. This results in high demands being placed on the visualization of these modules, which must have the ability to be combined in every possible way. We developed the initial programming and, together with scientists from the CHE and journalists from ZEIT, revise the backend for the new release every year. The search function is a core feature of the college ranking, and a great deal of attention is paid to it. It was implemented using Lucene.

In 2013, we optimized the college ranking website for display on smartphones.

U-Multirank

U-Multirank is a new multidimensional, user-driven approach to international ranking of higher education institutions. The dimensions it includes are teaching and learning, research, knowledge transfer, international orientation and regional engagement. Based on empirical data U-Multirank will compare institutions with similar institutional profiles and allow users to develop personalised rankings by selecting indicators in terms of their own preferences.

European Commission is funding the project for the next two years. A first ranking will be published in early 2014 covering at least 500 higher education institutions from Europe and beyond. It will provide an institutional ranking of whole institutions as well as field-based rankings for engineering, business and physics. After 2014 the coverage of institutions and fields will be extended progressively.

Folge 3 is a partner in an international consortium to develop U-Multirank. We were responsible to deliver the brand strategy, the logo and the webtool.
