Innovation in education
2011 up to now: Extending the course Wiskunde 1 (Mathematics 1) first year bachelor commercial
engineering with blended learning material (i.e., additional online video sessions). This operation
involves (a) selecting and preparing specific topics; (b) prerecording of additional classes for online
viewing, and (c) cutting, editing and publishing of the audio and video material obtained. In total,
5h 28m 56s of footage (Dutch spoken) is available on www.cmmc.be/Videolessen/.
2010 up to now: Adaptation of the course Statistische methoden voor bedrijfseconomen 1 (Statistics
1) first year bachelor applied economics for use in a blended learning educational environment.
This operation involves (a) selecting topics and preparing a reduced number of physical classes;
(b) prerecording of additional classes for online viewing , (c) cutting, editing and publishing of the
audio and video material obtained, (d) developing tailored digital material to accompany both
physical and online classes, (e) organizing online consultations on a regular basis, and (f)
developing intermediate progress tests. In total, 18h 6m 27s of footage (Dutch spoken) is available
