Design Thinking
Design Thinking is a human-centered design method. It offers plenty of opportunities for teachers to create interesting enrichment tasks and for pupils to work on 21st-century skills. In the two Erasmus+ programmes Bureau Talent was involved in we trained teachers, both in Dutch and in English, to work with Design Thinking. Since we believe in practise what you preach, the training itself is also based on the principles of Design Thinking. This means that the teachers go through the Design Thinking process themselves, so they literally experience it.
ECHA
ECHA stands for European Council for High Ability and one of its activities is training people in the field of Gifted Education. The ECHA training has a scientific base and is geared to practical situations, in and outside school. The ECHA-specialists in Gifted Education in the Netherlands are united in the ECHA Association. ECHA also organises biennial conferences on the topic of Gifted Education.
