EDUCATIONAL PROJECTS (2003-now)

Educational Project 2003 This research/consultancy-project was carried out at the Department for Education and Research, UMC Utrecht, formerly department 'ICT in Education' of the University Medical Center Utrecht School of Medical Sciences. The aim of this project was to gain insight in how e-learning supports their educational programmes. On the basis of these insights, new e-learning elements were designed. Download all the project results.

SURF-project 2003 - 2005 The first phase of the PhD-research was closely related to the SURF-project 'Multiprofessional, ICT-supported learning'. A project to develop and implement an educational setting for students of the four-year medical program SUMMA (UMC Utrecht) and Physiotherapy, Speech Therapy & Nursing of the Faculty of Healthcare (Hogeschool Utrecht). Read all about this project.

Educational Design Research 2006 and 2007 Educational Design Research at Hogeschool Utrecht University of Applied Sciences, in collaboration with practitioners of the Faculty of Communication and Journalism, Digital Communication & the Faculty of Nature and Sciences, Urban Development.

Educational Design Research 2003 - 2009 Applied PhD-research with as topic: 'A Sociomaterial perspective on the Design of (e)learning environments in Higher Education'. This applied, design oriented educational research project is coached by: Prof Dr Elly de Bruijn, Prof Dr Robert-jan Simons and Prof Dr Olle ten Cate (see also people-page). The work is not carried out in isolation but in collaboration with many people, groups, organisations and institutes.

Educational Design Research 2010 - now Design-based research project 'Hybrid learning environments in professional education'. A national, collaborative project with participating educational institutes, business & industry, intermediary knowledge institutes and educational and creative experts. Up-to-date information about this project can be found on (in Dutch): http://www.hetnieuweberoepsonderwijs.nl/profile/HybrideLeeromgevingen

EDUCATIONAL AUDITS (2007-2008)

Audits - general info NVAO (in Dutch: Nederlands-Vlaamse Accreditatieorganisatie) is the Accreditation Organisation of the Netherlands and Flanders. The organisation ensures the quality of higher education in the Netherlands and Flanders and is responsible for the accreditation process of educational programs. At the Hogeschool Utrecht University of Applied Sciences, the external accreditations are preceded by an internal audit and a formative, trial-audit. Internal audits are practically the same as external audits, only carried out by a team of internal auditors. Trial audits are formative in nature, they are like a trial-run for the actual accreditation.

Training internal auditor Training to become certified internal auditor at Hogeschool Utrecht. There is an internal training and a pool of certified internal auditors at the Hogeschool Utrecht.

Formative audit Formative audit Bachelor of Industrial Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology.

Formative audit Formative audit Master of Urban Management & Area Development, Faculty of Science and Technology.

Internal Audit Internal audit Bachelor of Ecological Social Work, Facutly of Society & Law.

THESES

Thesis (Bachelor) 'Beheer en onderhoud van kennissystemen' (Maintenance of Knowledge Based Systems). This thesis dealt with how to maintain knowledge based systems (KBS). KBS have a specific characteristic: they contain knowledge. Maintaining this type of systems, needs extra attention for this knowledge inside the system. In the thesis, the existing development method of Bolesian was extended with specific activities for maintaining the knowledge within a KBS. These activities were both of a technological and an organizational character.

Thesis (Master of Science) 'An instrument for effective knowledge audits'. Graduate project carried out for The Knowledge Management Network. In this thesis it was explored how you can determine the 'knowledge fitness' of an organisation. With the instrument, you are able to gather info about how well an organisation deals with its knowledge potential. The notion of the Knowledge Market was introduced. On this market, knowledge-supply and demand meet. If the knowledge market of an organisation functions effectively and efficiently, the organisation is knowledge fit.

Thesis (Master of Technological Design) 'Analysis and design of e-learning at the University Medical Center Utrecht School of Medical Sciences'. ISBN 90-444-0290-0. This project was carried out at the department 'ICT in Education' (ICTO-department) of the School of Medical Sciences. The School of Medical Sciences is one of the fourteen faculties of the Utrecht University. It has recently merged with the Utrecht University Hospital (AZU) and the Wilhelmina Children's Hospital (WKZ) to become the University Medical Centre Utrecht (UMC Utrecht). The aim of this project was to gain insight in how e-learning currently supports the Medical and Biomedical Sciences programmes. On the basis of these insights, new e-learning elements were to be developed. Read or download this thesis.
