[[Bestand:Overview research project process 1.png|omkaderd]]


The HZ Innovation Studio is called ‘The Garage’ as we are always open, ‘mechanics’ constantly work and cars come and go. The cars, as a metaphor for the projects, are in need of a certain fix. The repair takes a certain amount of time, approach and tools. Our chef shapes projects, periods and participants in such a way the owner (the project commissioner) will leave truly satisfied, able to continue its onwards journey. Colleagues come and go, also as some other students partake in projects to complete their full minor of 30 EC, a halve minor of 15 EC, their internship, graduation thesis or elective credits like HZ Personality. Altogether, this creates the dynamic and eclectic mix we treasure.
=== Process and proceures ===
'''Applied Research in relevant HZ projects'''


COMPETENCES AND LEARNING RESPONSIBILITIES
When you choose the Applied Research Track, you will work in close collaboration with '''HZ researchers''' on a range of relevant topics. You practice your applied research skills and gain expertise in cases that require urgent and valuable knowledge, resulting from empirical studies. You will..


For minor students, it is possible to spend approximately 10 weeks (1 period of 15EC) or 20 (2 periods of 15 EC=30EC) in our innovation studio. In these weeks, you develop and your portfolio will be tested on five competences, also called key areas of the Garage: design thinking, co-creation, applied research, critical reflection and conceptual thinking. Each competence is tested by means of three learning responsibilities. There are thus 15 learning responsibilities in the minor but that does not mean that each responsibility is part of the portfolio and tested as such. In the full minors of 2x 15 EC, you will also be assessed on leadership in personal development. In the first 15 credit minor this will be done by means of a presentation. In the second 15 credit minor assessment is on digital video products.  
... work on and gain experience in a real project. Stakeholders and experts from the work field are looking forward to collaborate with you and to find solutions to the challenges they currently encounter. Your contribution will be of direct use to them, and future minor participants will build on your work. 


''Personal Leadership: In the HZ Innovation Studio, we expect a proactive attitude towards and taking responsibility in personal development. This means…''
... learn to develop a project plan and experience how to execute this with your team, or individually. In other words, you will further develop your professional skills, like executing a project, collaborating with experts and professionals from your and other fields and taking responsibility, and developing your research capacity. Coaches and researchers will train and support you to achieving these.


0. You take charge and seize opportunities to develop as a person and professional in the key areas or other meaningful aspects in relation to your study, career and life interests. These are the fifteen learning responsibilities divided by 3 per competence:
... contribute to the project with your expertise and knowledge with a curious, constructive and respectful attitude. Meanwhile you will learn from and to collaborate with (young) professionals from various fields of expertise and with different responsibilities. This enables you to gain experience in your future work field, as the job market requires not only specialists but also generalists with a critical eye and a proactive attitude.


''Design Thinking: In the HZ Innovation Studio, we are design thinkers and doers. This means…''  
'''Coaching'''


1.1 You are able to distinct the various steps and tools of design thinking and relate 1-3 delta(s), its steps and tools to given project(s).  
When following the Applied Research track you will be supervised by two different coaches. Coaching on content and specifics about the research topic will be done by a coach part of your chosen research department within HZ. This coach will be available for you to answer questions regarding a particular field of expertise. When meeting with the research coach and your project team, discuss the project, identify progress, lessons learned and next steps for the project. The Research coach will be available at least 1 hour per two weeks. It is up to you, your project group and your research coach to discuss whether you want to meet weekly (30 minutes) or bi-weekly (1 hour) to discuss matters concerning the contents of your project. Update your research coach on progress and involve him/her in your Teams Channel. See this coach as the expert within the field of your research. 


1.2 You design, execute, monitor, interpret and/or validate the professional (end) product following the selected, appropriate design delta steps and tools.

TESTING FOR 15 OR 30 CREDIT MINOR HZ INNOVATION STUDIO
 
By working on our projects, you collect evidence for a portfolio. Coaching and feedback helps you to get continuously insights in being on track or not. Near the end of the first or second ten weeks, you draft a portfolio and receive final feedback. In this portfolio, the output of the projects will show the extent of mastery of the six learning responsibilities. Additionally, you can add a brief reflection to indicate (better) how you developed mastery. The assessment sheet can be found in appendix I. The testing of the first 15 EC is different from the second 15 EC minor.
 
In the first 15 EC, by means of a presentation, you also convince the examiner of your development in three learning responsibilities of the other three key areas. You can use a Prezi, PowerPoint, a Poster or something else of your choice. The assessment sheet and addition information can be found in appendix II This means that testing is structured:
 
''80% Portfolio''
 
• including project output and reflection (focused on 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3)
 
• including presentation resource (reflecting three choices of any learning responsibility in 3, 4, 5)
 
''20% Personal development''
 
• presentation and discussion on personal development in the Garage
 
''Deadline''
 
• For final feedback: Monday 31st of October 2022 23:59
 
• For final assessment: Wednesday 9th of November 2022 23:59
 
In the second 15 EC, you need to show development in at least six additional learning responsibilities of the key areas. Make sure that portfolio 2 entails no repetition of portfolio 1. In addition to that, you create a combination of a testimonial video and completion vlog. The testimonial video and completion vlog are a separate test, weighing 20%. For more information about the video’s and assessment, see appendix III. Testing in part two is structured:
 
''80% Portfolio''
 
• including project output and reflection (focused on 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3)
 
• including a written reflection (at least six choices of any learning responsibility in 3, 4, 5)
 
''20% Combination of testimonial video and completion vlog''
 
• video assessment on personal development and learning experience in the Garage Deadline (both portfolio and video’s)
 
• For final feedback: Monday 23rd of January 2022 23:59
 
• For final assessment: Wednesday 1st of February 2033 23:59
 
TESTING FOR LESS THAN 15 EC (MINOR REPAIR)
 
Students that work on projects to repair their minor, and aim to obtain less than 15 credits have different guidelines compared to the 15 and 30 EC minor. Depending on how many credits you have to obtain, the following categories have been created:
 
''Category A – 1 to 5 EC’s to obtain''
 
Choose three learning responsibilities of competency 1 (Design thinking) and 2 (Co-creation ) and choose two learning responsibilities of competency 3 (Applied Research), 4 (Critical Reflection) or 5 (Conceptual thinking). You reflect on these learning responsibilities by using the evidence you have collected from the project(s) you have been working on.
 
''Category B – 6 to 10 EC’s to obtain''
 
Choose four learning responsibilities of competency 1 (Design thinking) and 2 (Co-creation) and choose two learning responsibilities of competency 3 (Applied Research), 4 (Critical Reflection) or 5 (Conceptual thinking). You reflect on these learning responsibilities by using the evidence you have collected from the project(s) you have been working on.
 
''Category C – 11 to 14 EC’s to obtain''
 
Choose five learning responsibilities of competency 1 (Design thinking) and 2 (Co-creation) and choose three learning responsibilities of competency 3 (Applied Research), 4 (Critical Reflection) or 5 (Conceptual thinking). You reflect on these learning responsibilities by using the evidence you have collected from the project(s) you have been working on.
 
YOUR FINAL PRODUCT: PORTFOLIO
 
Your final product will entail the portfolio. Check the assessment sheet (appendix I) for the structure and what is expected. The structure of the portfolio will be as followed;
 
The student..
 
- introduces him/herself, shares on what he/she has worked on during part 1 or 2 and signposts the portfolio
 
- presents a current CV of student between introduction and reflection
 
- reflects in a structured manner per key area and explicitly mention the particular learning responsibility in the evaluations
 
- for portfolio 1, include the materials you used for the presentation
 
- for portfolio 2, include the written reflection per learning responsibility
 
- is critical and realistic concerning own development, gives details and refers to shared materials (output, evidence)
 
- shares output and evidence that allows interpretation of authenticity/stakeholders' comments (if applicable) in a structured manner
 
- shows a logbook that reasonably list (total) hours the student worked on what particular project and activities
 
- reflects on own activities, effort and results based on the employee wellbeing program (e.g. Wheel of Life) – approximately one A4. Font should be either Calibri or Arial, size 11.
 
FINAL CONSIDERATIONS
 
The HZ Innovation Studio minor ‘The Garage’ is in terms of organizational structure part of the HZ domain Business, Vitality & Hospitality. We have our own library. Books can be used on site or taken home. We mostly work with (scientific) articles, related to the projects. For this reason, there are no costs for literature.
 
All students can enroll in this minor. We expect enthusiasm, curiosity and a keen interest in the domain our projects take place. The context of our project is described above, yet we believe motivated students can bring something very valuable to the table, most probably related to their bachelor program learning journey so far. In order to increase a successful completion of this minor, a hands-on mentality is required. For each interested candidate there is the possibility to have one or multiple (online) meetings with numerous stakeholders of ‘The Garage’. Would you like to discuss your interests with our supervisor? No problem! Or do you prefer to ask questions to a (former) student colleague? Also no problem. Just get in touch with us and share your thoughts. We will take it from there. At the end, the objective of these exploratory talks is whether this minor might be a relevant fit for you.
