Towards effective and just energy transitions in underprivileged neighbourhoods
Especially in underprivileged neighbourhoods (UNs), with high renovation urgency and thus opportunities to kick-start the energy transition (ET), residents tend to resist retrofit measures. This is due to general lack of trust in government, housing corporations, and other key players. We contend that a negative spiral of ET effectiveness and justice is rooted in two mismatches, between (i) UN resident needs and everyday practices and customary E…
Heating and cooling places
Answers to ‘what energy is for’ might differ between professionals and residents living in lower-income neighborhoods. By combining ethnographic interviews and creative methods, we engage with residents to analyze justice claims in relation to places for keeping warm and cool in and around the home. Justice claims are normative answers to questions concerning justice. For instance, answers to questions such as: which and whose places for keeping …

Preservice teachers’ resilience during times of Covid-19
Becoming a teacher is difficult, especially in times of a crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic. We investigated how preservice teachers (PSTs) experienced their resilience, and which factors influenced resilience during the pandemic. We were interested in the following factors: 1) personal resources such as motivation, efficacy and emotions, 2) contextual resources such as relationships and support of colleagues, 3) coping strategies such as prob…
Student well-being in times of Covid-19 in the Netherlands
The COVID-19 pandemic affected student well-being through measures such as closing educational institutions and social distancing, which forced universities to adapt the student learning environment. Previous research has demonstrated that the learning environment influences student well-being by satisfying their basic psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. The present study therefore aimed to investigate, against the backg…
Promoting University Students’ Engagement in Intercultural Group Work
Intercultural group work (IGW) is a valuable learning strategy to enhance deep learning and prepare university students to participate in a globalized world, so more insight is needed into what motivates students to engage actively in IGW. Using an expectancy–value theory framework, this study investigates the extent to which the different components of this theory (i.e., self-efficacy, perceived benefit, and perceived cost) relate to each other …
Cultural Intelligence and Openness to Experiences Pave the Way for Cognitive Engagement in Intercultural Group Work
To prepare students for an increasingly globalized world, intercultural group work (IGW) holds promise as a pedagogical tool, because it may help them develop intercultural competence and second-language proficiency. These skills also are needed to complete the discipline-specific aspects of group work successfully. This study investigates the extent to which cultural intelligence (CQ), English language proficiency, and personality contribute to …

Investigating how students’ learning environment, social and physical well-being influence their resilience and feelings of depression and loneliness during the Covid-19 pandemic in the Netherlands
In response to COVID-19 pandemic-related social restrictions, university students have reported being more depressed, lonelier, and less resilient, potentially affected by changes within the academic system. The present study investigates how students’ social and physical well-being affect their psychological well-being and additionally explores the role of the learning environment. To this end, we analyzed secondary data collected during the fir…
Machine and expert judgments of student perceptions of teaching behavior in secondary education
Research shows that effective teaching behavior is important for students' learning and outcomes, and scholars have developed various instruments for measuring effective teaching behavior domains. Although student assessments are frequently used for evaluating teaching behavior, they are mainly in Likert-scale or categorical forms, which precludes students from freely expressing their perceptions of teaching. Drawing on an open-ended questionnair…
Pre-service teacher research
Internationally, the attention to pre-service teacher research and inquiry in teacher education is growing. In the Netherlands, pre-service teacher research has been a compulsory component of primary teacher education for a decade. The assumption is that such research can help ‘future-proof’ teachers. This study examines the relationships among the quality of inquiry, the quality of teaching and pre-service teachers’ perception of this research. …
How policy instruments reproduce energy vulnerability - A qualitative study of Dutch household energy efficiency measures
Rising energy prices threaten households' access to affordable energy services and increase the risk of energy vulnerability. One way to reduce the cost of access to energy is to implement energy efficiency measures at the household level (e.g. solar panels). However, not all households have the capacity to do this. Households that are unable to implement energy efficiency measures are vulnerable in two ways: 1) they may not enjoy the benefits of…

Culturally diverse learning groups are particularly valuable in preparing university students to participate in a globalized world. Student engagement in group work is critical in realizing these benefits. Therefore, more insight into what factors promote engagement is necessary. This study investigates the ex…
Student motivation in Dutch secondary school EFL literature lessons
Foreign language curricula worldwide have seen a revival of the inclusion of literary texts, promoting so-called language-literature instruction. Responding to the plea for more empirical research in this area, specifically in secondary education, this study investigates the student’s perspective by looking at the relationship between their level of engagement in literature lessons in English as a foreign language (EFL) and how they value these l…
Shaping Physical Activity through Facilitating Student Agency in Secondary Schools in the Netherlands
Schools can enable students' capability for lifelong physical activity (PA) by providing a physical, social and pedagogical context fostering students' agency. This entails allowing them to develop their autonomy and ability to shape PAs according to what they value. This paper explores whether , and, if so, how, school practices provide the conditions for developing and employing PA-related student agency. We followed a multiple case study desig…

The study contributes to a better understanding of TIOP as a compound teacher trait. • A scale is validated to measure its value-related and feeling-related dimensions. • TIOP validly predicts self-efficacy but not observed teaching quality. • It is suggested that TIOP be integrated into teacher education and induction. Compared to the disseminated studies on teacher motivation and positive emotion as separate dimensions, the knowledge base about…
Global teaching competencies in primary education
Calls for global citizenship education (GCE) in primary education have been making themselves heard in recent literature in different national and international contexts. Primary school teachers must be equipped with the necessary competencies required to carry out this broader task appropriately. This article seeks to understand how experienced teachers and teacher educators look at GCE and related global teaching competencies. A global citizens…
Central‐local tensions in the decentralization of social policies
European welfare reforms often involve the decentralization of social care services. This potentially creates central‐local tensions for professionals implementing and delivering policies on the ground. Using the capability approach (CA) as a conceptual frame, this article compares local professionals' experiences in the decentralization of social work and care services in an urban and a rural mid‐sized municipality in the Netherlands. It offers …
Connecting students and researchers
The inclusion of student voice in foreign language research often relies mainly on a perspective that includes their voice as a data source, in spite of claims that the perspectives that include students as initiators should be at the fore. In this paper, the authors address the incongruity of this situation, arguing for a revision of current views. They discuss different conceptualisations of student voice in educational research, and argue that…

NPM
Although performance information is a key element of NPM, politicians and managers rarely use this information. This paper investigates two alternative explanations for the intensity of information use. First, in cybernetic control information is used to make clearly pre-defined decisions and consequently the contents of performance reports should match the information needs of its receivers. In cybernetic forms of management a poor match could e…
