| Programmatic assessment, how can I use it in my own course?
|
| More and more programmes are implementing a programmatic approach to assessment (Baartman, van Schilt-Mol, & van der Vleuten, 2020). But how do you translate this concept to your own course? Lubberta de Jong (Educate-it), Marlies van Beek & Lonneke Schellekens (Onderwijsadvies & Training) discuss the principles of programmatic assessment at the curriculum level, and give you concrete tips on how to apply elements of this in your own course.

| New Special Interest Group: Academic Writing
|
| Many teachers and supervisors at the UU encounter questions and challenges related to academic writing. What to do with students who do not have a basic command of the language? How can PhD students be supported to write more efficiently? There are many successful initiatives related to academic writing at the UU. In this Special Interest Group we would like to exchange knowledge and expertise obtained in these initiatives. Not only from daily practice but also from scientific literature.

| Call for articles on assessment
|
| Dr Harold Bok (DGK), together with colleagues from Canada and Maastricht, is calling for articles on "Future-fit Assessment Strategies in Health Professions Education". Competency-based education (CBE) is very common in health profession education (HPE). The assessment of clinical competences is very important in this context - programmatic assessment could be a solution. Read more about the call here.

| Inclusive education is a necessity
|
| How do you ensure that all students feel welcome at the university? In the project “Developing an Inclusive Curriculum and Learning Environment”, education experts search for suitable resources to guarantee that feeling of home in education. “We want to help lecturers to develop antennas for inclusion and put them into practice,” says project leader Jeroen Janssen. The project started in September 2020 with funding from the Utrecht Education Incentive Fund. It is an interfaculty project with the Faculties of Social and Behavioural Sciences, Medicine, and Law, Economics and Governance as its participants.
