While the notion of autarky is often contested in terms of feasibility and desirability, art and design projects that deal with autarky seem to moreover suggest positive socio-cultural and ecological effects of autarkic living. A social network model of autarky is introduced to unify these seemingly …

Hoogbegaafde leerlingen in klassen van het Leonardo-onderwijs hebben in 2013 en in 2014 opdrachten gemaakt ontworpen volgens een matrix met de de 8 meervoudige intelligenties van Gardner (1983) en de 6 denkniveaus uit de taxonomie van Bloom (1956). Om te onderzoeken of deze opdrachten de begaafde leerlingen …

Voor ouders van hoogbegaafde kinderen is de schoolkeuze lastig om te maken. Een van de keuzemogelijkheden is het Leonardo Onderwijs. De vijf voornaamste redenen van ouders om voor deze onderwijsvorm te kiezen zijn in dit onderzoek te vinden.
