Twente's Got Talent (TgT) is a project subsidized by the province of Overijssel through the ICT Services Innovation programme. It aims to strengthen the regional educational knowledge infrastructure (from primary to academic education) by better utilizing the existing knowledge potential through the use of new ICT services. Currently, there are often obstacles in the renewal of STEM subjects in secondary education and a proper orientation towards science and technology in primary education. By addressing these issues, regional innovation and competitiveness are enhanced.
After a 2.5-year process, TgT has now been completed. Within TgT, the University of Twente, Saxion University of Applied Sciences, Windesheim University of Applied Sciences, and Edith Stein University of Applied Sciences collaborated with research and consultancy firm Dialogic and ICT consultancy firm Koopal Advies & Projecten on several sub-projects.
Monitoring and evaluation, carried out by Dialogic, showed that the existing knowledge potential in TgT has undeniably been better utilized. Networks, particularly through teacher development teams, have significantly boosted the process of STEM renewal. The other goals of TgT - strengthening the regional educational knowledge infrastructure, improving the connection for STEM subjects between primary and secondary education, and between secondary and higher education, and the enhanced use of ICT services - have largely been achieved.
