Cego Experiential Education, Ku Leuven
CEGO staat voor het Centrum voor Ervarings Gericht Onderwijs en omvat twee units: CEGO Onderzoek & Ontwikkeling (http://expertisecentrum.cego.be) en CEGO Vorming & Consult (https://vorming.cego.be/). Op deze pagina vindt u alle informatie van CEGO Onderzoek & Ontwikkeling. EXE answers the key question about ‘quality’ by pointing to indicators that help us to sense if what we are doing (context) is leading to somewhere (outcomes). It considers two variables as key indicators for the ‘power’ of the learning environment: the degree of ‘emotional well-being’ and the level of ‘involvement’ (intense mental activity) of the learners. These are the touchstones to create an effective educational context. Several variants of the Leuven Involvement Scale have been developed to cover a wide array of settings, from the care for babies/toddlers up to professionals in in-service training. Together with instruments for the assessment of ‘well-being’ these involvement scales are at the center of diverse child/student monitoring systems, instruments for self-evaluation of settings/ schools, and procedures for self-rating of involvement and well-being by children, students and professionals – all as part of overall quality assessment and improvement. The expertise has been broadened to the output of education. This research is guided by the concept of ‘deep-level-learning’. The framework for this rests on the Piagetian concept of ‘schema’ a basis to map competencies and dispositions. Both at the level of concepts, instruments and guidelines for practice, expertise has been developed with regard to life skills, competencies, dispositions and talents in a wide range of areas, with a special interest for the exploratory drive, intuition and creativity, the understanding of the physical world (including technology), social competence and mental health, and self-organization & entrepreneurship.

Ku Leuven - Center For Social And Cultural Psychology
The Center for Social and Cultural Psychology (CSCP) is dedicated to the basic and applied study of social psychological and cultural psychological themes. Social and cultural psychology studies how people interact and how they think and feel about one another and about the world, both as individuals and as groups. It starts from the premise that all behavior is contextualized, and conversely, that individuals' and groups' behaviors constitute the social and cultural landscape. Our research spans a wide range of different methods and contexts, varying from controlled laboratory experiments that provide insight into the effects of specific contexts on psychological functioning, to real-life research in schools, organizations, and society as a whole.

100twh
100 TWh is a group of Belgian citizens who are active in the debate on the energy future in Belgium, especially in the contexte of the political deadline of 2025. We advocate for a sustainable and competitive energy policy, which ensures the security of our electricity supply over the long term, by using different low-carbon primary energy sources. We believe that the best mix of electricity is a maximum of renewable (preferably continuous, but also intermittent) in combination with a nuclear base load to ensure the stability of the electricity grid and to meet the growing demand of domestic and industrial consumers. For us, Belgium must participate in the international development of Generation IV nuclear power. We have university skills and research and innovation centers to become a major player in the future of nuclear. It's important for our energy future, but also for our industrial future.

Agrotopia
De Provincie West-Vlaanderen en Inagro willen het praktijkonderzoek in de glastuinbouw klaarstomen voor de toekomst door te investeren in een nieuwe onderzoeksserre en een vernieuwde invulling van de huidige onderzoeksserre. De nieuwe onderzoeksserre op het dak van de nieuwe kistenloods van de Reo Veiling moet unieke kansen bieden voor onderzoek en innovatie in de glastuinbouw. Daarnaast zal het gebouw een voorbeeld zijn van meervoudig ruimtegebruik in een stedelijke omgeving. Op zijn bestaande site in Beitem blijft Inagro inzetten op glasteelten in vollegrond. De infrastructuur komt op een plaats waar de producent en de afnemers van verse groenten elkaar dagelijks treffen. Zo wordt Agrotopia niet zomaar een plaats voor onderzoek, maar ook een unieke locatie voor ontmoeting. De dakserre wordt bij uitstek een plaats waar onderzoekers, telers, toeleveranciers, technologiebedrijven, kenniscentra, onderwijs en maatschappij elkaar kunnen ontmoeten en kunnen samenwerken.
