About the festival

The OnderwijsFestival is the stage for teachers, students, and all other UU staff. They come together on this day to share information and exchange ideas about the quality and developments in education, but above all to meet each other, relax and get inspired.

Every year, there are a few set items on the programme. Attention is paid to teachers and other staff who are doing research on their own teaching (Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, SoTL), and who want to share their (research-informed) plans, progress and results. Also, at the OnderwijsFestival, the winners of the annual Teacher Awards and the UU Team Prize are announced.

The OnderwijsFestival is organised by the Centre for Academic Teaching and Learning (CAT). The CAT, together with its partners and a programme committee, which changes every year, fills the programme of the day.

This year, the committee consists of Christianne Smit (chair), Roos van der Aa, Esther van Dijk, Jelke de Haan, Nadine Nonnekes, Rebecca Nordquist, Frans Prins, Carina Schott, and Bjorn Wansink. On behalf of the CAT, Mayke Jildou Schlatmann, Anouk Rademaker, and Esther Verheijen are part of the committee.
