Lager opgeleiden vinden niet zonder meer hun weg in de publieke dienstverlening. In de afgelopen jaren is veel geïnvesteerd om dit te verbeteren. Proceselementen zoals brieven, online omgevingen en gesprekstechnieken zijn aangepast en verbeterd. Toch is de samenwerking tussen lager opgeleide cliënten en professionals nog lang niet optimaal. Onderzoek naar de oorzaak hiervan wijst op het bestaan van drie cruciale factoren die in samenspel met de proceselementen een effectieve samenwerking tussen cliënten en professionals onder druk zetten. Deze drie factoren zijn samengevoegd in drie pijlers. Dit zijn: begrijpen, willen en kunnen. Begrijpen we de ander, willen en kunnen we hem écht helpen? Deze pijlers komen uitgebreid aan bod in de animatie behorend bij stap 1. Voorliggend assessment is bedoeld om na te gaan wat jouw ervaringen zijn in de samenwerking met lager opgeleiden als het gaat om het begrijpen van de ander en het willen en kunnen helpen van de ander. Dit assessment wil jou ondersteunen bij het onderzoeken van de mogelijkheden om de hulp- en dienstverlening aan lager opgeleiden te verbeteren.

Staatssecretaris Van Huffelen (Digitale Zaken) wil ambtenaren verplichten een ‘mensenrechten-impact-assessment’ uit te voeren bij nieuwe én bestaande algoritmes. Een goede ontwikkeling, vinden Quirine Eijkman en collega’s van het College voor de Rechten van de Mens. Maar dan met bindende discriminatietoets.

We present an evaluation of tools for assessing the impact of AI in the Dutch media sector. Our evaluation of the ECP AIIA tool shows the need for clear guidelines in the adoption of various AI applications within Dutch media organisations. We conclude that the adoption of impact assessment tools, such as the ECP AIIA, is not held back by common media practice, but rather by commercial considerations.

SIA developed alongside EIA in the early 1970s as a mechanism to consider the social impacts of planned interventions. The early understanding tended to limit the practical application of SIA to the project level, usually within the context of regulatory frameworks, and primarily considered only the direct negative impacts. However, like other types of impact assessment, SIA has evolved over time and has diverged considerably from EIA.

Formative assessment (FA) is an effective educational approach for optimising student learning and is considered as a promising avenue for assessment within physical education (PE). Nevertheless, implementing FA is a complex and demanding task for in-service PE teachers who often lack formal training on this topic. To better support PE teachers in implementing FA into their practice, we need better insight into teachers’ experiences while designing and implementing formative strategies. However, knowledge on this topic is limited, especially within PE. Therefore, this study examined the experiences of 15 PE teachers who participated in an 18-month professional development programme. Teachers designed and implemented various formative activities within their PE lessons, while experiences were investigated through logbook entries and focus groups. Findings indicated various positive experiences, such as increased transparency in learning outcomes and success criteria for students as well as increased student involvement, but also revealed complexities, such as shifting teacher roles and insufficient feedback literacy among students. Overall, the findings of this study underscore the importance of a sustained, collaborative, and supported approach to implementing FA.

Het lectoraat Teaching, Learning & Technology onderzoekt de didactische inzet van technologie in leerprocessen. Hierbij kijkt het lectoraat naar thema’s als flexibilisering, gepersonaliseerd leren, activerende didactiek en de effecten van de inzet van technologie in de onderwijspraktijk en dan met name het hoger beroepsonderwijs. Wat tot op heden nog niet was onderzocht was of eerder uitgevoerd onderzoek een aantoonbare impact heeft gehad op de onderwijspraktijk. Dit onderzoek is de eerste fase in het inzichtelijk maken van de impact van onderzoek dat het lectoraat Teaching, Learning & Technology (TLT) van hogeschool Inholland heeft uitgevoerd. Er is daarbij gekeken naar onderzoek in de periode 2010 – 2021. De doelstelling is weer te geven hoe in eerder onderzoek beïnvloedbare impactfactoren zijn vormgegeven. Op basis van deze beschrijving kunnen wellicht aanbevelingen worden gedaan aan het lectoraat waarmee de impact van door hen uitgevoerd onderzoek in relatie tot deze factoren, vergroot kan worden. De onderzoeksvraag is: Hoe beschrijven belanghebbenden de impact van door het lectoraat Teaching, Learning & Technology uitgevoerd onderzoek in relatie tot de beïnvloedbare impactfactoren aangaande het onderzoek, de disseminatie en de (ervaren) gebruikswaarde? Voor het beantwoorden van deze onderzoeksvraag maakten we gebruik van een convergent mixed methods design, waarbij een nieuw conceptueel model als basis diende voor de analyse van data uit het praktijkonderzoek. Daarbij hebben we drie typen data verzameld, namelijk een kwalitatieve documentanalyse (N=31), een survey (N=6) en semi-gestructureerde interviews met participanten van de survey (N=4). Uit het onderzoek bleek dat belanghebbenden vooral de onderzoeker aanwijzen als primaire bron van impact. Impact begint en eindigt bij de onderzoeker, vooral in de mate waarin die zich inzet om het onderzoek relevant te maken en te laten aansluiten op vragen vanuit de onderwijspraktijk. Ten aanzien van de wijze waarop impact in toekomstig onderzoek kan worden bewerkstelligd, benoemen we een aantal aandachtspunten. Deze aanbevelingen zijn vooral gericht op de wijze waarop onderzoekers van het lectoraat gestructureerd aandacht kunnen besteden aan de vormgeving van de samenwerking en aan het concreet in beeld brengen van verwachtingen en beoogde impact in een vroegtijdig stadium.

This paper presents a method for Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) to account for the impact of research. The 36 UAS in The Netherlands aim to contribute to global challenges and pressing social issues through practice-based research. Given this aim UAS have a strong responsibility to account for the impact of their research and to show that the public research money is well spent. This paper shows that none of the existing methods for assessing the impact of research are suitable for the research conducted at Dutch UAS. It offers an alternative approach based on narratives supported by empirical evidence.

This chapter discusses the development of health impact assessment (HIA) in The Netherlands. HIA in The Netherlands began in the early 1990s and developed along two different lines: one shaped by the public health approach and the other stemming from the environmental field. Public health-based HIA evolved according to the paradigm presented by the Lalonde model of health. The HIAs mainly concerned national policies and addressed a variety of policy fields, ranging from tobacco discouragement and health insurance policy to national housing policy and the high-speed rail link. The environmental-based HIA focused on preventing environmentally related health risks and did not consider health in a broader sense. There is no legal obligation for environmental impact assessments to consider health impacts outside an environmental scope. If a first screening of the planned activity points to large health impacts or many concerns about potential health effects, a more detailed quantitative health impact assessment should be carried out.

Stakeholder engagement in Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Health Impact Assessment (HIA) provides opportunities for inclusive environmental decision-making contributing to the attainment of agreement about the potential environmental and health impacts of a plan. A case evaluation of stakeholder engagement was carried out to assess its effect in terms of consensus-building. The case consisted in two health impact scoping workshops engaging 20 stakeholders: policy-makers, experts and residents. A Participatory Action Research approach was adopted. Methods included observation, semi-structured questionnaires and interviews. Analysis methods consisted of several coding rounds, in-depth reading and discussion of Atlas.ti output reports, as well as studying questionnaire results. Participants reported a broadening of perspectives on health in relation to the environment and attainment of shared perspectives. Still, meaningful differences remained, indicating that joint learning experiences, trust and mutual respect created a ‘sense of consensus’ rather than a joint view on the issues at stake. To avoid disappointment and conflict in later project development, explicit acknowledgment and acceptance of disagreements should be included as a ground rule in future stakeholder engagement processes.

The research group Teaching, Learning & Technology investigates the didactic use of technology in learning processes. In doing so, it looks at themes such as flexibilisation, personalised learning, activating didactics and the effects of the use of technology in educational practice, particularly in higher vocational education. What had not been investigated so far was whether previously conducted research had a demonstrable impact on educational practice. This study is the first phase in providing insight into the impact of research carried out by the Teaching, Learning & Technology (TLT) research group of Inholland University of Applied Sciences. It looks at research carried out between 2010 and 2021. The objective is to describe how impact factors that can be influenced in previous research have been shaped. On the basis of this description, it may be possible to make recommendations to the research group with which the impact of the research it conducts in relation to these factors can be increased. The research question is: How do stakeholders describe the impact of research carried out by the research group Teaching, Learning & Technology in relation to the impact factors that can be influenced with regard to the research, the dissemination and the user value (experienced)? In order to answer this research question, we used a convergent mixed methods design, in which a new conceptual model served as the basis for the analysis of data from the field research. Three types of data were collected, namely a qualitative document analysis (N=31), a survey (N=6) and semi-structured interviews with survey participants (N=4). The study revealed that stakeholders mainly point to the researcher as the primary source of impact. Impact begins and ends with the researcher, especially in the extent to which he or she makes an effort to make the research relevant and in line with questions from the educational practice. We have listed a number of recommendations with regard to the way in which impact can be achieved in future research. These recommendations are mainly aimed at the way in which researchers of the research group can pay attention in a structured way to the design of the collaboration and to the concrete visualisation of expectations and intended impact at an early stage.
