Samenvatting

The research group of the Lectoraat Groene Leefomgeving van Steden has published this book to show that charrettes represent a highly interesting new component of the teaching programme at Van Hall Larenstein. They enable students to get a first taste of the professional setting they might end up working in, and teachers to tailor their teaching to professional practice. The charrettes also enable Van Hall Larenstein to enter into numerous new collaborations with Dutch and international partners, and it also uses the charrettes to show how interesting learning can be and – at least as importantly – how much fun. The teachers and organisers of the charrettes hope that this book may inspire the development of many new charrettes.
