Ieder business center zou moeten beschikken over een FabLab om de huurders 3D printen aan te kunnen bieden.

Na drie jaar wordt de eerste fase van FabLab Enschede succesvol afgesloten. Met dit fraaie boekje (ontwerp door Karin Voortman-Overbeek) wordt teruggeblikt op een stormachtige start die mede mogelijk is gemaakt door de gemeente Enschede, de provincie Overijssel en Saxion. Met interviews en voorbeelden wordt een beeld gegeven van wat het FabLab Enschede gedaan en bereikt heeft en hoe het na deze eerste fase verder wil.

Research through design allows creating a dialogue with the material. It uses making andreflection on action as a generator of knowledge. Our aim is to explore the opportunities and challenges of smart textiles. The Fablab is our set up, a place that allows us to combine the hackingscientific-, and design community. It stimulates collaboration and the knowledge exchange needed for the development of smart textile systems. A collaborative prototyping workshop for medical products combined two worlds. The textile world in Saxion aims at incorporating conductive materials into textile structures and functional- / 3D printing to create systems for applications such as flexible heating systems and wearable technology. We combined this with the world of Industrial Design at TU/e, focused on the design of intelligent products, systems and services by the research through design approach. The collaboration between these different disciplines accelerated the process by reducing the resistance to the new and skipped the frustration on failure.

The pace of introduction of new technology and thus continuous change in skill needs at workplaces, especially for the engineers, has increased. While digitization induced changes in manufacturing, construction and supply chain sectors may not be felt the same in every sector, this will be hard to escape. Both young and experienced engineers will experience the change, and the need to continuously assess and close the skills gap will arise. How will we, the continuing engineering educators and administrators will respond to it? Prepared for engineering educators and administrators, this workshop will shed light on the future of continuing engineering education as we go through exponentially shortened time frames of technological revolution and in very recent time, in an unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic.

Dit publieksonderzoek is een voortzetting van het onderzoek: Inventarisatie en analyse cultuuronderzoek Provincie Utrecht (2018). De opdracht voor beide onderzoeken is voortgekomen uit de cultuurnota Alles is NU, cultuur- en erfgoednota 2016 (Provincie Utrecht, 2016). De provincie Utrecht wil inzicht krijgen in de beleving en waardering van de culturele profilering van streken en gemeenten en de bekendheid en publiekswaardering van culturele voorzieningen en erfgoed-locaties.

Innovatie en wendbaarheid zijn twee essentiële voorwaarden voor economische groei en welzijn. De noordelijke regio heeft veel potentie maar de benutting ervan is niet vanzelfsprekend. Het lectoraat Wendbaar Vakmanschap draagt bij aan Vital Regions, het hogeschoolbrede zwaartepunt waarmee NHL Hogeschool zich inzet voor het sociaalmaatschappelijk welzijn van de regio door praktijkgericht onderzoek te doen naar huidige en vernieuwende leerprocessen die veelal met samenwerkingspartners vorm krijgen. Het onderwijs bereidt jonge mensen voor op een actieve rol in de samenleving, economische zelfredzaamheid en een leven lang leren. Het lectoraat is ingesteld om kennis te ontwikkelen over leren, veranderen en innoveren. Het richt zich op leerprocessen die van invloed zijn op de wendbaarheid van vakmensen en professionals. Het zijn immers de wendbare professionals die innovaties aanjagen en maatschappelijke meerwaarde creëren en daarmee een cruciale rol spelen in de regionale activiteitensystemen

How and where can Dutch design entrepreneurs find work in Germany? This was the question DutchDFA put to the research team at Inholland University of Applied Sciences in February 2010. But the researchers took a different angle, and generated unexpected data, revealing patterns, and valuable new insights into practicing design and architecture abroad.

Urban areas provide a promising context for upcycling due to the concentration of consumers and existence of bulky waste resources. Hence, upcycling initiatives emerge across European cities, but little is known about their manifestations. Building on interviews with twenty-four stakeholders from the urban upcycling ecosystem and three focus groups sessions, a morphological model was created with internal and external business model characteristics to analyse a database of 172 collected Dutch urban upcycling initiatives in the furniture and interior sector. The morphological analysis led to eleven urban upcycling manifestations with distinct business model characteristics that make up five generic categories and a landscape of urban upcycling which facilitate future research into the topic. A research agenda to study quantitative implications, regional differences, collaborative experimentation and scaling strategies of urban upcycling is proposed. Practically, the typology may facilitate policy makers and practitioners to create, scale or accelerate urban upcycling initiatives.

In 2019, the first "Atelier Book" was published . Since then, a few years have passed and numerous new Ateliers have emerged. With this new atelier book, through more than 30 portraits, the richness and variety of ateliers within our college are shown. The portraits are divided as follows: ateliers at the NHL Stenden locations, external ateliers and ateliers which the facilities are a strong determinant. These portraits show which issues are being worked on, how they cooperate with the field and researchers and what the added value of the Ateliers is. This atelier book also contains a number of in-depth articles that talk about working and learning in ateliers. The contribution in chapter 1 is about: what NHL Stenden aims at with ateliers, where do the ateliers differ and some experiences with ateliers. After the portraits in chapter 2, chapter 3 presents the 'Atelier Value Creation Model' and a model with design dimensions. Both provide tools for designing and evaluating ateliers. Chapter 4 zooms in on the effects of physical space on learning. Then, Chapter 5 discusses the outcomes of (current) research on ateliers.

(‘Co’-)Designing for healthy behaviour greatly benefits from integrating insights about individual behaviour and systemic influences. This study reports our experiences in using insights about individual and systemic determinants of behaviour to inform a large co-design project. To do so, we used two design tools that encourage focusing on individual determinants (Behavioural Lenses Approach) and social / systemic aspects of behaviour (Socionas). We performed a qualitative analysis to identify 1) when and how the team applied the design tools, and 2) how the tools supported or obstructed the design process. The results show that both tools had their distinctive uses during the process. Both tools improved the co-design process by deepening the conversations and underpinnings of the prototypes. Using the Behavioural Lenses under the guidance of a behavioural expert proved most beneficial. Furthermore, the Socionas showed the most potential when interacting with stakeholders, i.c. parents and PPTs.
