School of Education

The School of Education trains and develops enterprising, inquisitive and confident teachers. Here you can become the teacher you want to be. We offer our students a lot of space to broaden or deepen their knowledge. And: we have joined forces with the work field to tackle the shortage of teachers.

Home base for practice-based research

We work together with the degree programs to tackle social issues through groundbreaking practice-based research. At the School of Education, we do this through the following research centers:

Extended Teacher Professionalism
Learning with ICT
Contemporary Assessment and Decision Making
Vocational and Professional Education

iXperium/Center of Expertise

The iXperium (Center of Expertise) contributes to education in which digital technology is better utilized. The goal is more effective, tailored education. We put ICT literacy of pupils and students on the agenda so that everyone has equal opportunities in society. Together we are building education with ICT.

Partnership for Quality of Learning

Learning changes. We work together with the professional field to look for new knowledge about learning and development, inside and outside the school. And we use that knowledge to prepare our students for the profession. So that in the future you’ll have a colleague you can rely on.

Partnership for Lifelong Development

We are educating people for professions we don't yet know. Professionals see developments coming their way whose consequences are hard to predict. Rapid automation, digitization and robotization are turning the world upside down. Or not?

Educating Together

Within the School of Education, we educate students to become qualified teachers in primary, secondary and/or vocational schools. Then we do as much as possible with the schools, in partnerships. We educate our students together with these professional development schools.

The Learning Lab

Contemporary education is different from traditional education. The focus is on self-regulation and responding to students’ needs. In The Learning Lab, we work together in the triangle of research, education (teacher educators and students) and professional field.
