Target audience
****
This workshop is meant for researchers who want to learn how to apply
Bayesian inference in practice. Most applications we discuss are taken
from the field of cognitive science. Because the workshop is based on
a set of book chapters and concrete exercises of varying difficulty,
the course material is appropriate for researchers with a wide range
of prior knowledge and interests

Rekentuin wins award!

The Rekentuin recently won an IPON-award for most innovative software for primary education!

Math Garden is a new web based training-tracking system developed by our department to playfully train and measure mathematical skills.

Math Garden is adaptive. The difficulty of the exercises automatically adjusts to the skills of each child. This makes Math Garden a challenge for both children who are weak in math and those who are good – or even excel – at it. The adaptive system also makes it possible to quickly and easily determine the level of each child.
