Creating a sense of belonging through co-creation during COVID-19

Open access

Samenvatting

The COVID-19 pandemic took over the world in March 2020. After the implementation of lock-down measures,the level of acute loneliness increased around the world (Dahlberg,2021). This emotional state was especially prevalent among students who experienced the dramatic shift of education from on-campus to remote teaching (Ferri, Grifoni & Guzzo, 2020). For Honours students, this widespread loneliness particularly affected their sense of belonging in the ‘Honours community’, which is one of the three pillars of Honours education programs. These are creating community, offering freedom, and enhancing academic competence (Wolfensberger, 2012). This paper presents the results of and reflection on an experience of “teaching in co-creation” aimed at fostering Sense of Belonging (SoB) developed in the interdisciplinary Honours Seminar of the Geosciences Honours College, Utrecht University, in The Netherlands. During the academic year 2020-2021, an Honours Seminar–called Honours Seminar Tourism [HST] –was developed and offered through a practice of co-creation between two teachers and four Honours students (all six are authors of this paper). A total of 86 Honours students participated, coming from all disciplines int he Faculty of Geosciences and all undergraduate years. Fourteen of them were international students from at least eight countries, several of whom stayed in their country of origin during the lockdown.
