In 2018 the Utrecht Model of Education was extended with three pillars. These pillars are ‘Customized learning’, ‘Evidence Based Higher Education’ and ‘Sustainable innovation’.

As a result of the fast growth in technological possibilities, educational innovations have to permanently be supported and researched scientifically. This is the only way for education to stay up-to-date and to timely respond to new didactical possibilities and innovations.

Educate-it enables this through:

• Support for educational innovation
• Advice for the Centre for Academic Teaching about structural solutions for educational innovation
• The results of studies into the effects of innovations leads to well-founded decisions regarding the use of technology
