This dissertation describes several studies concerning the research-teaching nexus in the sciences.

Do you have a general interest in a particular degree programme, but you do not want to complete the entire programme? Many programmes offer the option of becoming a contract student. That means you would not legally be considered a student, but you would have the right to take examinations.

The programs of Cultural Anthropology and Development Sociology, Educational Sciences, and Psychology offer the opportunity to take individual courses from the complete range of education. This 'contract teaching’ is intended for those interested in delving into a specific subject but do not wish to…

Research projects for students of the University of Leiden and other Dutch Universities are often available at the MacBio group. The research lines are also described in the Research section. For details of specific projects contact the supervisor (Ubbink, Dame, Boyle, Jeuken or Wentink).

The Graduate School of Archeology offers no longer the opportunity to obtain a full BKO certificate for PhD candidates. PhD candidates can opt for the partial BKO, especially designed for them, in which only the objective 3 and 4 are assessed: preparing and giving lectures and supervising students.

The active learning ambition is based on the idea that knowledge is more likely to ‘stick’ when students are actively engaged with their learning and research. This active student participation has implications for how we teach: less consumption of knowledge and more efficient use of contact hours.

University-school partnerships are important constellations for teachers’ professional learning. The present study investigates how both teacher characteristics and contextual factors are related to teachers’ motivation to participate in the university-school partnership, and the relationship between…
