German School Shanghai

Uniting teachers, parents, and students on one platform

The_task

Plan, design and develop a new web presence for the biggest and fastest growing German speaking institute in a foreign country. Support the school in creating a corporate identity, including logo and slogan.

The_approach

Engaging students in the process of finding a good symbol for their school, mediaman developed the school’s logo
and slogan.From there, the web site was created  channelizing users by function (student, parent, teacher), but also by school segment (Kindergarten, Elementary School, High School).

The_solution

By creating an easy to recognize color code, all information is immediately structured by school segments. By updating the web site daily, it replaced the traditional “school black board”. To do so, we implemented customized a user friendly backend by using the open source CMS Typo 3. This way, school staff can easily make their own updates and keep the site alive for everybody.
