Wilfred Boele, lecturer in administrative and organizational sciences, noticed that for the subject of policy and decision-making, his students were less engaged in the work groups. To solve this, he has his students make their own knowledge clips. During the lectures, he covers various mechanisms around policy and decision-making, except for one, on which he has his students make videos. He divides the working groups of fifteen students into three subgroups that work on storytelling, the script for the video, and filming and editing. The students enthusiastically get to work in VU's pop-up studio and receive appropriate guidance. Besides higher engagement of his students, it gives him more time as a teacher!
