In the field of innovation, The UvA TLC network offers several opportunities that support educators in education innovation. These include the UvA TLC Education grants, the Visible Learning Trajectories Programme, as well as various Special Interest Groups (SIGs).
Research makes an important contribution to evidence-informed education at the UvA and provides further development and improvement. Research fellows and other ongoing research projects provide insight into the impact of education innovation and professionalisation and insight in the experiences of teachers and students. Based on the research results, we can further improve UvA education.
Our team consists of representatives from Social Sciences and Child Development & Education alongside a Coordinator – thus ensuring that voices from across the FMG are equally represented. The TLC-FMG is co-directed by Dr. Jessica Taylor Piotrowski (Communication Science) and Drs. Sharon Klinkenberg (Communication Science).
