At the beginning of May 2020 all Inholland-students received an invitation to participate in a large international study on the corona crisis impact on student life and studies. This poster, presented by the Study Success Research Group, covers relevant results divided in four themes. These themes are student wellbeing, student engagement, satisfaction and the coronavirus. To determine student wellbeing we asked students about their feelings and contacts. Student engagement is phrased in time allocation and engagement. We also wanted to find out how satisfied students were with things like ICT facilities, quality of education and provision of information. Of course we asked students about (not) having corona and adhering to the measures.
How are the students of Inholland University of Applied Sciences doing? How do students assess their health and how engaged are they? What are the biggest stressors during their time as a student and what stress reactions do they experience? How resilient and optimistic are the students, and from whom do they get the necessary support? Based on the Student WellBeing Model, this fact sheet shows the most important results of the Student Well-Being Study 2017–2018. The questionnaire was completed by students in the classroom (n=407).
Energy transition is key to achieving a sustainable future. In this transition, an often neglected pillar is raising awareness and educating youth on the benefits, complexities, and urgency of renewable energy supply and energy efficiency. The Master Energy for Society, and particularly the course “Society in Transition”, aims at providing a first overview on the urgency and complexities of the energy transition. However, educating on the energy transition brings challenges: it is a complex topic to understand for students, especially when they have diverse backgrounds. In the last years we have seen a growing interest in the use of gamification approaches in higher institutions. While most practices have been related to digital gaming approaches, there is a new trend: escape rooms. The intended output and proposed innovation is therefore the development and application of an escape room on energy transition to increase knowledge and raise motivation among our students by addressing both hard and soft skills in an innovative and original way. This project is interdisciplinary, multi-disciplinary and transdisciplinary due to the complexity of the topic; it consists of three different stages, including evaluation, and requires the involvement of students and colleagues from the master program. We are confident that this proposed innovation can lead to an improvement, based on relevant literature and previous experiences in other institutions, and has the potential to be successfully implemented in other higher education institutions in The Netherlands.
The pressure on the European health care system is increasing considerably: more elderly people and patients with chronic diseases in need of (rehabilitation) care, a diminishing work force and health care costs continuing to rise. Several measures to counteract this are proposed, such as reduction of the length of stay in hospitals or rehabilitation centres by improving interprofessional and person-centred collaboration between health and social care professionals. Although there is a lot of attention for interprofessional education and collaborative practice (IPECP), the consortium senses a gap between competence levels of future professionals and the levels needed in rehabilitation practice. Therefore, the transfer from tertiary education to practice concerning IPECP in rehabilitation is the central theme of the project. Regional bonds between higher education institutions and rehabilitation centres will be strengthened in order to align IPECP. On the one hand we deliver a set of basic and advanced modules on functioning according to the WHO’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health and a set of (assessment) tools on interprofessional skills training. Also, applications of this theory in promising approaches, both in education and in rehabilitation practice, are regionally being piloted and adapted for use in other regions. Field visits by professionals from practice to exchange experiences is included in this work package. We aim to deliver a range of learning materials, from modules on theory to guidelines on how to set up and run a student-run interprofessional learning ward in a rehabilitation centre. All tested outputs will be published on the INPRO-website and made available to be implemented in the core curricula in tertiary education and for lifelong learning in health care practice. This will ultimately contribute to improve functioning and health outcomes and quality of life of patients in rehabilitation centres and beyond.
In de lerarenopleiding wordt aandacht besteed aan het ontwikkelen van pedagogisch handelen waarbij aangesloten wordt bij de ‘bekwaamheidseisen voor leraren basisonderwijs’. Het gaat dan om de ontwikkeling van pedagogische kennis en kunde en het stimuleren van bewustwording van het eigen handelen. Het expliciteren van het pedagogisch handelen van leraren is vaak nog lastig en blijft impliciet. Aanstaande leraren lijken zich wel bewust van het belang van hun pedagogische opdracht, maar kunnen hun pedagogisch handelen soms lastig verwoorden, onderbouwen of expliciteren. Zo ook bij het creëren van een oefenplaats voor burgerschapsvorming. Het ontbreekt hen aan taal om situaties te herkennen en hun pedagogisch handelen te duiden, terwijl ze er wel degelijk vorm aan geven. Dit onderzoeksproject heeft als doel om (aanstaande) leraren te ondersteunen bij het expliciteren van hun pedagogische opdracht bij het creëren van een oefenplaats voor burgerschapsvorming. Met behulp van de centrale vraag: “Op welke wijze kunnen alledaagse ervaringen – gericht op pedagogisch handelen bij het creëren van een oefenplaats voor burgerschapsvorming – benut worden om het handelen van (aanstaande) leraren te verstevigen?” wil de postdoc inzicht creëren in: - de manieren om alledaagse pedagogische ervaringen tot uitdrukking te brengen; en - de manier waarop deze ervaringen gebruikt kunnen worden om (aanstaande) leraren te ondersteunen bij de bewustwording van hun pedagogisch handelen en het zodoende te verstevigen. Het startpunt voor bewustwording is het expliciteren van alledaagse pedagogische ervaringen, zogenaamde lived experiences. Deze zijn de basis voor reflectie, dialoog met anderen en daarmee bewustwording. Het delen van verhalen over praktijkervaringen wordt gezien als een belangrijk startpunt bij het ontwikkelen van pedagogisch handelen . Bovenstaande sluit aan bij het instellingsplan 2017-2022 genaamd ‘Le(ra)ren met Lef’ en het onderzoeksprofiel van het onderzoekscentrum. De hbo-postdoc besteedt 50% van haar tijd aan onderzoek, de andere 50% wordt besteed aan het geven van onderwijs.
