In this workshop we invite you to experience a technology demonstration and subsequently help us to transform traditional mono-disciplinary technology education into transdisciplinary and multilevel challenge-based education. You will gain insights in two interesting technology applications and will have the opportunity to enrich your and our perspectives on transdisciplinary, multilevel and challenge-based education.

The TranSEED workshop brings an additional and crucial perspective to the conference programme.
This workshop is a coming together of multiple perspectives. After a short introduction, you will experience one of two technology mini workshops. The first workshop will challenge you regarding 3D printing for vertical axis wind turbines. The second workshop focuses on an Industry 4.0 implementation through an Arduino & Excel controlled refrigeration system.
After these mini-workshops and a well-deserved break, we will challenge you. The question we ask you is to transform these workshops so that they can be tackled by students from multiple disciplines (transdisciplinary), from multiple types of institutions (multilevel) and framed not from a technological, but from a challenge-based perspective.
In the final part of the workshop, we will execute these challenges in a roleplay and discuss our experiences afterwards.

Steven Haveman
Steven has a background in Industrial Design Engineering before transition to the broader field of Systems Engineering. He has made a transition from working with technical systems to understanding transitions for socio-technical systems. He is currently employed at the University of Applied Sciences in Utrecht. Steven will provide input to the transdisciplinary educational perspective.
Jan Lauwerijsse
Jan Lauwerijssen has a background in mechanical engineering, specialized in heavy transportation and education. He has completed the entire educational ladder from European qualifications framework (EQF) level-2 to level-7. Jan is employed in various roles, including a leading role in CoVE SEED for ROC Midden Nederland where he has been working since 2018. Jan will provide input to the multilevel educational perspective.
Carme Huguet
Carme Huguet has over a decade of robust teaching experience. Carmen’s expertise spans from conducting undergraduate classes at both introductory and advanced levels to occasionally teaching at the master level. In 2015, Carmen established a research group focused on active STEM learning. This initiative has been recognized with four awarded projects, and our findings have been disseminated through four articles and six conference presentations. Carme will provide input to the challenge-based educational perspective.
Fernando Pascual Fuentes
Fernando Pascual Fuentes Fernando is a professor in the specialty of thermal and fluid equipment, has studied chemical engineering and industrial engineering, having worked, among other activities, in the design of computer systems that allow the monitoring and control of processes. Fernando will host the Arduino and Excel technology mini workshop.
Julian Mateo Muñoz
Julian Mateo Muñoz is a professor specializing in wind energy working at IES Alto Palancia in Valencia. Julian will host the 3D printing of vertical axis wind turbines mini workshop.
