During last education day, Freek Pols became one of the TU Delft Education Fellows: The Delft Education Fellowship recognises and appreciates the efforts of lecturers for educational innovation and boosts the impact on educational reform and development. Freek's project, entitled: The road to scientific inquiry “Transforming lab courses”, focuses on setting up collaboration between the four educational programs of our faculty with regards to the introductory lab courses.

Becoming an Education Fellow feels like a reward for transforming the first year physics lab course. Moreover, it provides the opportunity to continue the transformation of lab courses, put the knowledge gained in my research into practice.
