Designing non-routine mathematical problems is a challenging task, even for excellently performing prospective teachers in primary teacher education, especially when these non-routine problems concern knowledge at the mathematical horizon (HCK). In an experimental setting these prospective teachers were challenged to design non-routine HCK-problems. Acquiring HCK, the perspective of the problem solver in terms of heuristics, a cyclic design process, experts struggling themselves in designing problems were the most important effective characteristics of the learning environment that rise from this explorative study.

The implementation of the new mathematical knowledge base in Dutch teacher education institutes for primary education raises a need for curriculum development. Teacher educators have to raise student teachers’ subject matter knowledge to a higher level. In working on this aim teacher educators experience that student teachers often feel uncertain about their mathematical skills and are not very interested in formal and abstract mathematics. Student teachers prefer to focus on mathematical pedagogical content knowledge. This paper presents two design studies that try to tackle this problem. The first one targets the development of student teachers’ specialized content knowledge (SCK) and the second one focuses on their horizon content knowledge (HCK). Both studies target developing student teachers’ mathematical subject matter knowledge in the perspective of teaching mathematics in primary school. In the studies we established student teachers’ learning environments that kept them involved and motivated, even when they found the mathematics hard to do. Primarily, this attitude supported their mathematical growth, while it also developed their pedagogical skills and insight. INTRODUCTION

In workshops digitaal componeren lijken basisschoolleerlingen de muzikale taal te kunnen leren gebruiken en daarmee hun muzikale creativiteit te kunnen ontwikkelen. Daarnaast lijken ze bij het componeren op de tablet ook op een intuïtieve manier gevoeligheid voor de onderliggende structuren in muziek te kunnen ontwikkelen. Dit ontwikkelingsproces vindt plaats in de interactie tussen workshopleider, muzikale taak en leerlingen. Het verlenen van autonomie, van speelruimte om zelf te mogen bedenken, kiezen en creëren, lijkt daarbij een belangrijke rol te spelen. Workshopleiders deden dit in de workshops door ruimte te bieden voor muzikale expressie en creatie, en door vragen te stellen. Naast ruimte boden workshopleiders de leerlingen adaptieve ondersteuning (scaffolding) en structuur. Workshopleiders leken daarbij gebruik te maken van door ervaring ontwikkelde ‘pedagogical content knowledge’ en een eigen creatieve pedagogische stijl.In het kader van promotieonderzoek naar creativiteitsontwikkeling in muzieklessen op de basisschool heeft explorerend onderzoek plaatsgevonden naar de interactie in workshops digitaal componeren. De uitkomsten worden gebruikt voor de ontwikkeling van een coachingstraject voor leerkrachten basisonderwijs gericht op het stimuleren van creativiteitsontwikkeling in de muziekles.

The biomass demand for the use as both renewable energy source and raw material for the biotechnology industry is increasing. Simultaneously, the supply of biomass is requested to become more costcompetitive. Innovative solutions for cost-effective biomass production should also avoid indirect land use changes and direct negative environmental effects. The main aim of this study is to identify the most promising innovative lignocellulosic cropping systems regarding environmental sustainability as well as social acceptance for different cost scenarios and different regions in Europe. To gather innovative cropping knowledge from around Europe ADVANCEFUEL organized a workshop. Participating Horizon 2020 projects presenting innovative approaches onlignocellulosic cropping systems included: FORBIO, MAGIC, BECOOL, LIBBIO, GRACE, and SEEMLA. Data was collected from field studies of the participating projects prior to the workshop and later presented in an aggregated way as a basis for discussions. This approach incorporates the knowledge gained in over 60 study cases conducted in 12 different countries. Under these study cases, 16 different lignocellulosic crops were covered. This field based knowledge can be used to validate spatial assessments of sustainable biomass production potentials in Europe.

This literature review explores ways older workers might continue to make waves and impact their work organization. The topic of the paper is grounded in the problem of an ageing organizational population looming in the near future. The work presented here is a start to helping management in knowledge-intensive organizations to understand how to effectively utilize the capacities of older knowledge workers by stimulating intergenerational learning as a means to retain critical organizational knowledge, encourage innovation and promote organizational learning through knowledge building. First, the concept of intergenerational learning is developed followed by a discussion of the organizational factors important for it to take place. The last section presents ideas on how to design and implement intergenerational learning as an organizational development program.

Dragen sociaalnetwerksites van sportverenigingen (ClubSNSs) bij aan het clubgevoel van leden? 129 leden van sportverenigingen vulden een vragenlijst in over ClubSNSs en clubgevoel. Daaruit blijkt dat leden ClubSNSs informatief, vermakelijk en interactief vinden en ClubSNSs gebruiken voor het volgen van content over sport, leden en de club. Verder blijken ClubSNSs belangrijk voor het clubgevoel van leden, doordat identificatie met de sportvereniging wordt opgebouwd.
