Brenda van Keeken

Faculty Education Award

Juryrapport

Brenda knows (almost) every student in Human Movement Sciences, and (almost) every student knows Brenda. This is because Brenda looks beyond the student, and builds a personal connection. She can be blunt, but is always fair. Besides her regular teaching jobs, Brenda started and maintains an alumni file, regularly publishes an alumni magazine, manages a LinkedIn group for Human Movement Scientists, and is instrumental in facilitating internships for students outside the university. Brenda is the binding factor to the Department of Human Movement Sciences both for students and alumni as well as for colleagues and teachers.

Anja de Koning

Faculty Education Award

Juryrapport

Anja impressed the jury with the skill and enthusiasm she fulfilled one of the less popular tasks at the faculty: updating and implementing examination models.

Anja listens to problems, understands these problems and stays nice and modest.
