Research Group Driving Educational Change
Lines of research within the research group
NETLINC - Building INnovative Capacity of higher education through NETworked Learning
A multidisciplinary consortium studies how networked learning can enhance the innovative capacity of higher education institutes
Innovative capacity of education professionals during complex changes
Active involvement of educational professionals in complex educational innovations is important for the successful realization of those innovations. The active role of educational professionals has been studied to a limited extent to date. In this project we investigate which elements make up the innovative capacity of education professionals, and how we can strengthen this.
Proeftuin Appropriate Teaching
In this research workshop, which we call Proeftuin, we focus on researching and improving the pedagogical actions of MBO teachers in order to strengthen the connection to the learning and/or educational needs of students. To this end, we work together in professional learning communities (PLC).

Education
The short-term and long-term results of many educational changes often remain unclear. The research group wants to help initiate and implement changes in a more goal-oriented, substantiated way – in HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht and in other educational institutions.
