Jan Willem Hengeveld — teacher · Ontwikkelkracht (Dutch Ministry of Education) · builder
I build tools for education.
By day I work on better education at Ontwikkelkracht, the programme run from the Dutch Ministry of Education. Alongside that I build the tools and sites I needed in the classroom myself.
C01
Teaching
It started in the classroom, and that's still my measure for everything: does it work on Monday morning, or not? Without that test, a good idea stays just an idea.
C02
Education & knowledge
At Ontwikkelkracht, run from the Dutch Ministry of Education, I work on the bridge between research and practice: what do we know, and what does a school need to actually use it.
C03
Building
Web apps, sites and tools for education. Usually because I needed them and they didn't exist. Small enough to understand, solid enough to lean on.
