Inner Play in a Study Narrative

In 2018 I received a Comenius Teaching Fellow grant that allowed me to further develop a teaching innovation. Finally, there is now the cahier 'Inner Play in a Study Narrative', a digital and a printed (Dutch only) cahier written for students and teachers, but of course also for anyone who wants to professionalize in any area. The cahier describes a method by which students, with the help of game principles and philosophy, can take more ownership of their studies and is based on Johan Huizinga's basic vision that we are playing people, Homo Ludens, and that play can come closer to reality than the supposed reality itself.
