At the beginning of May 2020 Inholland students received an invitation to participate in a large international study on the corona crisis impact on student life and studies. Almost 3000 students participated. This factsheet shows data on their lifestyleand their resilience. But also on their worries about corona, their knowledge of it and their opinion on the information supply.

From the onset of the Corona crisis, a specific policy challenge was identified in the Netherlands: How to motivate young people to adhere to the behavioral measures, such as physical distancing? Young people have an important role to play in stopping the virus from spreading, but they may be more difficult to reach and less motivated and able to adhere to the guidelines than adults. Mid-March, Moniek Buijzen was invited to consult the behavioral unit of the Dutch national health institute (RIVM) on communication and behavioral change among youth. She immediately called together the Dutch Young Consumer Network, which consists of scholars with expertise in communication directed at children and adolescents. Over the months, our network has been approached by policymakers, campaign developers, and journalists and engaged in a wide variety of advice activities. Even though the crisis is not over yet, we would like to share the collaborative approach that we took to harness our expertise and, most importantly, the specific tool that we used to share it.

De corona-pandemie gaat vergezeld van een tweede pandemie: die van angst en onzekerheid. Die vervult een sleutelrol in zowel de aanpak van de volksgezondheidscrisis áls in de financieel-economische crisis. Vanaf het begin van de crisis vertaal ik de wetenschappelijke inzichten over de doorwerking van die angst en onzekerheid in compacte mindmaps met korte toelichtingen Inmiddels is versie 4.0 beschikbaar, die u hier kunt downloaden: Mindmaps maatschappelijke doorwerking angst voor corona 4.0 Ik sta vanzelfsprekend open voor toelichting of feedback.

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.

De corona-epidemie is een ongekende crisis van onze volksgezondheid. Maar in deze epidemie ligt nog een andere epidemie besloten: die van angst en onzekerheid. Zoals de Ierse premier gisteren terecht opmerkte heeft déze epidemie nu al een veel grotere doorwerking op onze samenleving dan die van het virus zelf.

I have been limiting my news intake since week 2 of the corona crisis, saving it up for the evening, when I read the physical papers (Het Parool and NRC) and we watch the traditional 8 o’clock national news at NPO1, a Dutch habit I must have lost some 30 years ago. Around week 3 I discovered a series of smart phone witness accounts broadcasted on Dutch public television around 10.15pm to wrap up the day, called ‘frontberichten’. Because of geo-blocking audiences outside of NL cannot watch it but there is a Facebook account where you see the short episodes (I am not on FB). They are all in Dutch (if you are inside NL, you can watch them here). The idea is simple. Those working in the ‘vital professions’ can send the mobile video clips via the usual platforms. If these professionals have been approached by a production company or whether they have indeed taken the initiative themselves remains unclear; same can be said of the selection. This is further compiled by a traditional TV format, including smooth editing, music and in-between clips here and there. Apart from these largely invisible aspects, the content is impressive.

What tips would you give to your fellow students or to your study programme? These can be tips relating to well-being, online education or studying at home. We asked this question in the international well-being questionnaire. All of the tips have been analysed and organised into tips for fellow students, teachers and bachelor programmes. On top of that, we compared the tips with our previous well-being survey from 2018. It is clear that, while many of the tips for students are the same, there is now a greater emphasis on mutual contact and studying together. Creating a fixed daily schedule was mentioned many times as well this time. For lecturers personal contact seems to be even more important now, especially amongst students in their final year. Other frequently mentioned topics include online interaction, flexibility and support with planning. For the bachelor programmes clarity and information were already important before, but these seem to be absolute necessities during the corona crisis.

Met corona moeten burgers thuisblijven. Maar hoe doen mensen dat die geen huis hebben, die niet op een thuisbasis kunnen terugvallen? Wat voor impact heeft de coronacrisis op hen en op de hulpverlening? En wat kunnen we daarvan leren voor de aanpak van dakloosheid in de nabije toekomst?

Groeiende werkloosheid en daarmee inkomensdalingen bij huishoudens kondigen zich nu al aan. In hoeverre hebben ‘we’ geleerd van de lessen uit de vorige crisis van 2008? Zijn de ‘vette’ jaren alleen gebruikt om geld opzij te leggen voor slechte tijden, of is die tijd ook gebruikt om systeemfouten aan te pakken?
