Innovative development is a program that is given at The Hague University of Applied Sciences. This program teaches students to become more innovative. This article will look into the current approach and measure the growth in innovativeness of the students over the years. This was measured with a survey, based on the Berkeley innovation index. The results from the survey were calculated and scored based on eight factors. The innovative development program was compared with another program called information security management. These programs are from the same faculty. The information security management program did not show significant growth over the years in innovation. The innovative development program had resulted in a significant growth in innovativeness over the years. Some of the factors could be improved to increase the effectiveness of the innovative development program. https://nl.linkedin.com/in/haniers

The Research Centre of Teaching, Learning & Technology from Inholland University of Applied Sciences is collaborating (2017 - 2021) in the transnational European funded Erasmus+ research project Designing & Evaluating Innovative Mobile Pedagogies (DEIMP). The increasing ubiquity of mobile devices, and ongoing technical developments, are providing educators and learners with exciting new opportunities for supporting their teaching and learning. However, educators struggle to recognize and exploit the pedagogical possibilities of mobile devices and tend to replicate existing pedagogical practice. Researchers of the DEIMP-project are doing research into the principles of innovative mobile pedagogies. The aim of this project is to help educators build knowledge and understanding of innovative mobile pedagogies. In this animation the principles of innovative mobile pedagogies are discussed.

This paper describes a research about the changing role and competences of teachers and the willingness of the teachers to change. The researchers developed and conducted a survey at Fontys University of Applied Sciences department engineering to find out how teachers teach and how they would want to teach. The conclusion drawn from this research results in five subjects of attention: 1 To investigate new teaching competences 2 To investigate new teaching strategies 3 To develop collaborating professional environments for teachers 4 To develop a formal declaration of how companies can participate effectively in the process of the transition of youngsters to professional practitioners 5 To investigate how the organization should change their culture and structure towards a professional learning environment for students and teachers. The above mentioned items will be subject of further research in the coming study year. The main goal is to develop a business case or strategic plan on how to implement change in teaching engineering education.

The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed the importance for university teachers to have adequate pedagogical and technological competences to cope with the various possible educational scenarios (face-to-face, online, hybrid, etc.), making use of appropriate active learning methodologies and supporting technologies to foster a more effective learning environment. In this context, the InnovaT project has been an important initiative to support the development of pedagogical and technological competences of university teachers in Latin America through several trainings aiming to promote teacher innovation. These trainings combined synchronous online training through webinars and workshops with asynchronous online training through the MOOC “Innovative Teaching in Higher Education.” This MOOC was released twice. The first run took place right during the lockdown of 2020, when Latin American teachers needed urgent training to move to emergency remote teaching overnight. The second run took place in 2022 with the return to face-to-face teaching and the implementation of hybrid educational models. This article shares the results of the design of the MOOC considering the constraints derived from the lockdowns applied in each country, the lessons learned from the delivery of such a MOOC to Latin American university teachers, and the results of the two runs of the MOOC.

Within health education, many innovations are introduced, but are often not successful or sustainable. It is generally acknowledged that the quality of an educational system mainly depends on the quality of the teachers. Innovations will only succeed if teachers experience a climate that stimulates innovation and if they possess a sufficient level of innovative work behaviour. The current concept of innovative work behaviour (IWB) consists of three different behavioural dimensions: Idea generation, promotion and realization. However, the concept lacks attention for idea sustainability, which is necessary to embed the innovation deeply in daily practice. The limited attention for improving and continuation of an implemented idea is an often-mentioned explanation for the lack of the long-term success of innovations. Aim: This study aims at the development and validation of an instrument for innovative work behaviour that also includes the dimension idea sustainability, which has been overlooked by other researchers. Method: A questionnaire is developed, based on the questionnaire of Messmann (2012). Additional items are added to measure the new dimension idea sustainability. This new dimension contains the following concepts: Improving and optimising the innovation, disseminating the innovation in depth in the system of the organization and disseminating on a larger scale, and finally visualization of the benefits for stakeholders. The questionnaire is send to 400 teachers of a University for applied sciences in the South of The Netherlands. Results: 179 questionnaires were completed. It can be concluded that the scales to measure innovative work behaviour are strongly interrelated. There are significant correlations between the original dimensions and the added dimensions. The results for individual characteristics indicated that age and tenure did not correlate with any of the scales. Work experience, gender and also the faculty to which teachers belong did make some difference with regard to IWB. The results for job characteristics showed that the number of working hours, job position and the participation in research groups did make a difference with regard to IWB. In general, job characteristics showed more links with the various scales to measure innovative work behavior compared to the individual characteristics.

Bachelor-studenten van de Hotel Management School Maastricht beginnen hun opleiding Hoger Hotelonderwijs met een semester Hotel Orientation. De module Hotel Orientation was ten tijde van het onderzoek opgebouwd uit blokken van drie weken waarin studenten zich theoretisch oriënteren en gedurende steeds een week praktijkervaring opdoen in Teaching Hotel Château Bethlehem. Zodoende maken zij kennis met alle afdelingen van het Teaching Hotel: de keuken, het restaurant, housekeeping, services en de receptie. De opleiders zien dat de praktijkweken voor de studenten een rijke leerervaring opleveren en willen meer inzicht krijgen in de leeropbrengsten om deze te kunnen benutten in het curriculum van de module en van de opleiding. Aan het Lectoraat Professionalisering van het Onderwijs is gevraagd onderzoek te doen voor afstemming van het curriculum op de leerervaringen in het Teaching Hotel. Aan de hand van een vooronderzoek, samen met medewerkers en studenten van de Hotel Management School hebben de onderzoekers de onderzoeksvraag geformuleerd: Welke perceptie hebben studenten van wat ze leren in Teaching Hotel Chateau Bethlehem? Er is voor gekozen om studenten aan de hand van drie thema’s te interviewen: leeropbrengsten uit de leeromgeving, uit de begeleiding en persoonlijke leeropbrengsten. In totaal zijn 19 interviews met studenten gehouden waarbij de interviewdata uiteindelijk zijn ingedeeld in twaalf leeropbrengsten, zoals operationele vaardigheden, visie op de bedrijfscultuur, teamwerk, rol van de begeleiders, verantwoordelijkheid nemen, professioneel zelfvertrouwen, socialisatie en leermotivatie. Voor deze leeropbrengsten is op basis van de uitspraken van studenten een beschrijvende definitie geformuleerd. De onderzoekers hebben de beschrijvingen van de leeropbrengsten met een overzicht van de deelaspecten en enkele citaten van studenten gepresenteerd in een werkconferentie met medewerkers die in de opleiding verantwoordelijk zijn voor het curriculum: het management van het Teaching Hotel, de Werkgroep Praktijkleren, de Curriculum Commissie en de Directeur. De deelnemers aan de conferentie waren blij verrast door de hoeveelheid leeropbrengsten en de positieve waardering van studenten voor de praktijkweken in het Teaching Hotel. De aanwezigen in de werkconferentie stelden vast dat het onderzoek hun signalen bevestigt en helpt om deze collectief bespreekbaar te maken. Het onderzoek laat zien dat het Teaching Hotel een belangrijke bijdrage levert aan de opleiding van eerstejaars studenten. De onderzoeksbevindingen hebben ertoe geleid dat de Werkgroep Praktijkleren de opdracht heeft gekregen om voorstellen voor het beter benutten van de leeropbrengsten te ontwikkelen.
