Modern architecture meets new education. Renaat Braem’s design and the Brussels Decrolyschool (1946) KU Leuven Ghent University
This article deals with the different layers of meaning in building designs, developed in the first half of the twentieth century for the progressive Decroly School l'Ermitage in Uccle. The authors focus in particular on the non-realized design (1946) by Renaat Braem and Jack Sokol as well as on the context in which this design has been developed.
Reflections and prospects about the relationship between master thesis and design project in interior architectural education Hasselt University
Abstract: The Bologna process, initiated in 1999, propelled an ongoing reform of the European higher education. One of many processes is the integration of design schools – formerly belonging to a polytechnic or beaux-arts tradition – into academia. It presents challenges to universities and design schools alike. Commonly, many debates centre around the issue of research: output media, ‘measurability’ of output and the relationship between ...
Research-by-design framework for integrating education and research in an intercultural parallel design studio Hasselt University
Intercultural student exchange can positively impact education, research, and society. Research-by-design has been put forward in design education as an approach to explicitly address the integration of education and research. The problem is that design schools develop their own interpretation of this approach, which brings difficulty in virtually comparing and learning from the generated design proposals. This case is evident in intercultural ...
Effectiveness of a nutrition education package in improving feeding practices, dietary adequacy and growth of infants and young children in rural Tanzania: rationale, design and methods of a cluster randomised trial Institute of Tropical Medicine Ghent University

Curriculum Design in Higher Vocational Technical Education and College Student’s Learning Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Curriculum design for vocational technical education(VET) has changed in the last two decades due to the development of knowledge and technologies both in Belgium and China. The changes in curriculum design, which is closely related to teaching models, may lead to changes in student’s learning efficacy, learning motivation and learning outcomes. However, there is a lack of research on curriculum design and curriculum models in higher vocational ...
The Future of Penile Prosthetic Surgical Training Is Here: Design of a Hydrogel Model for Inflatable Penile Prosthetic Placement Using Modern Education Theory Hasselt University
Background: There is a significant need for a non-biohazardous, educational platform to equip and maintain the surgical skills required by urology trainees and low-volume implanters for inflatable penile prosthetic (IPP) placement. Aim: To design and develop an anatomic, hydrogel-based simulation platform for training and evaluate IPP placement using modern education theory. Methods: The backward design concept was used as a framework in the ...
