In het middelbaar beroepsonderwijs worden hybride leeromgevingen, waarin de contexten van school en werk worden geïntegreerd, gezien als een veelbelovende manier om onderwijs en praktijk beter op elkaar aan te laten sluiten. Er is weinig bekend over het duurzaam ontwerpen van deze integratieve leeromgevingen binnen een mbo-instelling als geheel, waarbij het gaat om leeromgevingen van verschillende sectoren. In deze meervoudige, tweejarige case study zijn 45 integratieve leeromgevingen op de grens van school en werk, verspreid over zes sectoren binnen één onderwijsinstelling in kaart gebracht. Deze leeromgevingen zijn in focusgroepen geanalyseerd op 1) waar zij zich bevinden op de dimensie school-werk, 2) de ontwerpkenmerken inhoudelijk, sociaal, temporeel, instrumenteel en ruimtelijk, en 3) bevorderende en belemmerende factoren bij het ontwerpen en uitvoeren van integratieve leeromgevingen. Dit onderzoek geeft inzicht in hoe deze leeromgevingen zijn ontworpen en welke factoren daarbij van belang zijn. Integratief samenwerken met het werkveld blijkt in alle sectoren mogelijk. De ontwerpkenmerken inhoudelijk, sociaal en ruimtelijk worden vaker als integratief ervaren dan het ontwerpkenmerk temporeel. Vanuit het temporele perspectief blijken vooral kaders van school leidend en komen daarmee naar voren als een belangrijke factor in het succesvol opschalen en verduurzamen van leeromgevingen.

Few evidence-based methods for case management in child protection and child welfare are available. That is why Youth Protection Amsterdam Area developed a new method, by integrating their best practices: Intensive Family Case Management (IFCM). Because IFCM was developed in practice, clarity about its core elements and behavior acts was lacking. The purpose of this study was to establish a valid operationalization of IFCM used for implementation purposes such as training, clinical supervision and monitoring. A 74-item draft was developed to describe the behavioral acts of IFCM, based on a literature study and analysis of internal documents and training. To ensure content validity, a Delphi study was conducted. Over two rounds, professionals (1) rated the behavioral acts needed in the application of IFCM on a five-point Likert scale and (2) provided their preferred terminology. Items with consensus ratings of 80 % or more were included in the final description. Selected IFCM experts rated the behavior acts over two rounds. The initial list with 74 behavior acts was reduced to 55 acts with a consensus of 80 % or more. Certain behavior acts were combined, others did not lead to consensus. Based on experts’ feedback, the initial terminology of 46 behavior acts was modified. The final 55 acts were categorized in ten core elements. This study explicates the core elements of IFCM and describes the 55 necessary behavior acts in preferred and recognizable terminology. The study describes implications of these findings for the practice and gives recommendations for future research.

ABSTRACT When designing interventions for health, multidisciplinary teams increasingly work according to an ‘agile’ process. Potential benefits of this approach are better knowledge transfer, stakeholder inclusion, and removal of barriers to interactions. Unfortunately, the question whether agile approaches are useful in designing health interventions remains as yet unanswered. To contribute to current knowledge, we analysed the process and results of a large multidisciplinary project with an agile approach. Our case study shows such an approach may indeed be a feasible method for the development of health interventions. The process allowed for a high pace, and good stakeholder inclusion. Some limitations also occurred. The agile approach favours speed over rigour, which hinders integration of user research and scientific evidence in the development process. Multidisciplinary cooperation remains difficult because of the limited availability of experts and stakeholders. Finally, the difficulties in documenting the process and results of the agile approach limit its use in scientific projects.

Een aanzienlijk deel van de Nederlanders die in armoede leven heeft werk. Deze werkenden met een laag inkomen behoren relatief tot de ‘verborgen armen’, wat betekent dat zij gemeentelijke inkomensondersteunende regelingen mislopen waar zij recht op hebben. De gemeente Amsterdam werkt in haar aanpak Sociaal Werkgeverschap samen met lokale en regionale werkgevers om deze inwoners zo veel mogelijk te bereiken en ondersteunen. In deze case study is onderzocht hoe dat in de praktijk vorm krijgt en wat deze ondersteuning heeft betekend voor een aantal werknemers die in financiële nood zaten. Ook is gekeken in hoeverre werkgevers een 'vindplaats' kunnen zijn voor werkenden die in verborgen armoede leven en soms nog helemaal niet in contact zijn met de hulpstructuur in de stad. Deze case study is voor gemeenten die ook willen samenwerken met werkgevers om werkenden te bereiken met hun voorzieningen voor inwoners met een laag inkomen: mensen in 'verborgen armoede'.

Decisions are used by organizations to manage and execute their coordinated, value-adding decision-making and are thereby among an organization’s most important assets. To be able to manage deci-sions and underlying business rules, Decision Management (DM) and Business Rules Management (BRM) are increasingly being applied at organisations. One of the latest developments related to the domain of DM and BRM is the introduction of the Decision Model and Notation (DMN) in September 2015 by the Object Management Group (OMG). The goal of this technical paper is to provide students with a case to practice the specification, verification, validation, deployment, execution, monitoring and governance of business rules in practice.

Supply chain collaboration, in which two or more autonomous firms work together to plan and execute supply chain operations, is becoming ever more important to remain competitive in business. Yet, through collaboration concerns arise about whether the benefits and risks of collaboration are split in an acceptable and fair manner. This research illustrates the role of fairness (organizational justice theory) in creating and appropriating value from supply chain collaborations. We therefore analyze an extensive case study in the Dutch floricultural industry, in which six companies enter a supply chain collaboration. We conclude that fairness considerations are very important for explaining the outcomes of supply chain collaborations. Asymmetries in perceived value appropriation can be offset if the collaboration is deemed fair on distributive, procedural, interpersonal and informational justice dimensions. Firms may improve the success rate of supply chain collaborations if the fairness perceived is considered to be adequate.

This article presents an evaluation study of a case management method for child protection services, the Delta Method for Family Supervision, in terms of supervision order duration and occurrence and duration of out-of-home placements. Additionally, case and case manager characteristics were examined. Data was collected about 224 cases, 58 case managers and 30 team managers of all 15 offices of the Child and Youth Protection Services in the Netherlands. In all cases the Delta Method was applied. Data were obtained by interviews, questionnaires and case files. Multi-level analysis was performed to study the influence of independent variables on supervision order duration, and the occurrence and duration of out-of-home placements. Case characteristics related to 87% of the differences in the duration of supervision order, case manager characteristics to 13% of the differences. Some case manager characteristics about applying the Delta Method were significantly related to shorter duration of the supervision order and the occurrence and duration of out-of-home placement. Case characteristics also showed strong relations. Together with the more general aspects of case management supported by this study, such as a one family and one worker approach, this contributes to a more effective practice of case management for child protection services.
