This paper presents the application of theories and experiences in the day-to-day environment of honours education in a so-called honours learning environment. In 2009, Windesheim University of Applied Sciences (UAS) started with honours education. An important question from the start was: what characterizes the honours learning environment? Based on experience, knowledge exchange and input from theory, the honours learning environment was developed, which is the fundament of honours and talent development at Windesheim UAS. The eight characteristics are illustrated by animations and explanations based on scientific studies.

In September 2009 the department of Engineering of Fontys University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands has started a pilot honours program for excellent engineering students called PRogram OUstanding Development (PROUD). Aim of this program is to give those engineering students, who have the ambition, the opportunity to work on extra profession related challenges in their study. By means of this PROUD program Fontys University of Applied Sciences is responding to the wishes of students for extra curricular activities and increasing need from the industry for excellent professionals with an extra level of theoretical knowledge and practical experience. In this paper the courses offered at the Engineering department of the Fontys University of Applied Sciences are discussed. Different study possibilities/routings for students were developed depending on earlier acquainted competences, adaptation abilities to our system (special possibilities for slow starters) and tracking and tracing by intensive study coaching. This resulted in an improvement of the yield of students to 74% of students started in 2008. After working successfully on reducing the drop out rate of our engineering students the department focused on possibilities for excellent students. The department started the PROUD pilot together with engaged engineering students. In 2008 engineering students have carried out a research among their fellow students, lecturers, other institutes [1] and industry. This resulted in a quite different approach of an honours program for the department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering. In the PROUD program the student is stimulated to personally shape his educational career and to explicitly work on developing his own competences. The PROUD excellent program starts after the first year and extends to at least 3 semesters in the following years. The student, guided by a supervisor and outside the regular study time, is working on building an excellent portfolio at the university as well as in industry. During this period the PROUD student will work in industry one day a week in average. This is on top of his bachelor educational program. The students will receive an excellent honours certificate together with their bachelor's degree at the end of the study to express their honourable work. Each year about 20 students apply for a place in PROUD but thus far only about 3-4 passed the first interview round. It turns out that student, university and industry are eager to participate in this PROUD program.

Research Questions
1) How do honours students behave when collaborating with regular students?
2) Which factors affect whether honours students dare to stand out?
POSTER
In mei en juni 2023 kregen alle honoursstudenten de kans om een vragenlijst in
te vullen over hun ervaringen in het Honours Talent Programma. In deze infographic delen onderzoekers van het lectoraat 'Talentontwikkeling in Hoger Onderwijs en Samenleving' de eerste resultaten.

Discussions during International Honours Congress Utrecht, Utrecht. 2-3 June 2016.
In this session we focused on honours students’ needs for autonomy. What do students want, expect and need from their teachers and what are the teachers’ views concerning this subject. The aim of this session is that both teachers and students gain insight into each other’s views. Ideally, teachers will come to some new understandings they can apply into daily practice, while students will learn when and how to express their needs towards their teacher.
DISCUSSIESTUK
Veertig honoursstudenten van verschillende instellingen* zijn geïnterviewd over hun ervaringen met talentontwikkeling in een honoursprogramma: hun projecten, begeleiding, belevenissen, dips en tips. Op basis van een analyse van deze interviews is in tien stappen hun leerproces beschreven in een ‘cirkel van talentontwikkeling’, afgeleid uit de metafoor van de ‘reis van de held’ van Joseph Campbell. Het boek is bedoeld als inspiratiebron voor iedereen die geïnteresseerd is in talentontwikkeling, in het bijzonder (aanstaande) honoursstudenten, ouders, docenten en beleidsmakers. Het boek is dankzij een subsidie van het Sirius Programma uitgebracht bij Hogeschool Rotterdam Uitgeverij. *Deelnemende studenten studeren of studeerden aan: Windesheim, HvA, Hanze, UU, HU, ArtEZ, HR, Saxion, HL, VU, UvA, TUD, UT
BOEK
In dit artikel zoomen we in op de rol van de docent in het leerproces van honoursstudenten. We belichten die rol vanuit verschillende perspectieven: vanuit het perspectief van de docent zelf, vanuit het perspectief van didactische principes en vanuit de wensen of perspectieven van de student. Uiteindelijk verkennen we op welke manier deze principes in de onderwijspraktijk daadwerkelijk tot uiting komen, waarna we aangrijpingspunten beschrijven die daaruit zijn af te leiden voor professionaliseringsprogramma’s voor honoursdocenten.
