Game Development with Students

The project Game Development with Students introduces interested educators to an innovative teaching tool with practical insights from the international relations classroom. Game development with students is a specialized form of game-based and project-based learning. It incentivizes both student creativity and in-class student-teacher co-creation and enables a particularly participative and result-oriented approach to the subject matter. The method is thematically flexible enough to travel across different fields of study and is adaptable to different levels of complexity. To enable other educators to implement this innovative teaching tool, we develop instructional materials (an educators handbook as well as educational videos), providing both general information on the experiential, game-based learning theory undergirding the method as well as practical, hands-on tips and trick on how to implement it in different educational settings. In doing so, we address the important, interconnected educational challenges of the transferability and sustainability of teacher developed tools.

FinanceCalculatorKeys

It all too often happens that newcomers to the field of Finance do understand the theory or a concept, but they may sometimes struggle to actually perform a calculation simply because they do not know how to operate their pocket calculator. Since these people may typically feel embarrassed to ask, the current document tries to take away their stress and shows how to perform some simple Finance calculations on a step-by-step basis.

[ENG] Pressure cooker Transdisciplinarity – A theoretical approach

What – This pressure cooker is an introduction to the theory of the why and what transdisciplinary education. You’ll learn why transdisciplinary education can be useful and what it means. For whom – The format can be used (and adjusted) for a class of students (all levels; any group size) as well as a team of educational developers or teachers. Why – Guided training in, for instance, transdisciplinary education improves the actual working with, or teaching of, it. How long – In-class activities take under one hour. Preparation at home takes up to 40 minutes. Our practical approach (the how), which you can take after this pressure cookers takes op two hours.

[ENG] Pressure cooker Transdisciplinarity – A practical approach

What – This pressure cooker is a practical approach to the how of transdisciplinary education. You’ll learn how you can embed transdisciplinary education. For whom – The format can be used (and adjusted) for a class of students (all levels; any group size) as well as a team of educational developers or teachers. Why – Guided training in, for instance, transdisciplinary education improves the actual working with, or teaching of, it. How long – In-class activities take two hours. Preparation at home takes up to 40 minutes. Please go to the pressure cooker about the theoretical approach (the why & what) if you first want to know more about the theory.

Legal Network Analysis

How can complex legal systems, filled with interconnected cases, statutes, and actors, be understood through data? Legal Network Analysis offers law students and researchers a practical guide to mapping and interpreting relationships in legal data using the tools of network science. Building on the foundations of graph theory, this open textbook shows how relationships between cases, statutes, or states can reveal underlying structures in law that traditional methods often overlook. Whether analysing citation networks, treaties among nations, or the diffusion of legal norms, readers learn to translate legal questions into visual and quantitative insights. Developed by the Law and Tech Lab at Maastricht University, this resource combines conceptual clarity with applied learning. Each chapter blends concise explanations with interactive Jupyter notebooks, allowing readers to reproduce, modify, and experiment with examples in real time. Appendices include step-by-step guidance for data preparation, visualisation, and software setup; making the book equally accessible for newcomers and advanced students. Designed to support the Network Analysis course at Maastricht University, this textbook is also a valuable standalone introduction for anyone exploring the data-driven dimensions of law and policy.

Classical Mechanics & Special Relativity

Classical mechanics is the starting point of physics. Over the centuries, via Newton’s three fundamental laws formulated around 1687, we have built a solid framework describing the material world around us. This textbook includes animations, demos and exercises for studying introductory classical mechanics. Moreover, we will consider the first steps of Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity published 1905. This book starts from the three laws of Newton and builds up classical mechanics from scratch. Its content carefully constructs the classical mechanics from Newtons laws, providing a rigorous, fundamental framework. Emphasis is placed on working with the basic concepts of momentum, energy and angular momentum. Special attention is paid to oscillations, collisions including non-ideal ones and the Kepler problem. Rigid body dynamics is extensively discussed. The use of polar coordinates is extensively discussed. Non-inertial frames of reference are treated starting from linearly accelerating ones and moving to the rotating frames of reference. The centrifugal and Coriolis forces are introduced and explained. In the second part, the switch to special relativity is made. The problems coming out of Maxwells equations for electro-magnetic waves are used as the step towards modern mechanics. The Lorentz Transformation, where events in 4-dimensional space, time dilation and length contraction are discussed. Furthermore, the book introduces the world of four-vectors, deriving the four-velocity and four-momentum. Velocity transformation, Doppler shift and relativistic collision form the final parts of the book.

Engineering Signal Analysis

Engineering Signal Analysis - Theory, is an introductory textbook on the analysis of signals in time and frequency. It takes an engineer’s perspective and discusses how to characterize, analyze and operate on signals. The basic theoretical concepts, Fourier series and transform, are explained in continuous time. It then introduces discrete-time signals, addressing how sampling and finite signal duration affect spectral analysis. It discusses the discrete Fourier transform and its use in spectral estimation. The book concludes with an introduction to linear systems and signal filtering.

Practice Material for Fundamental Courses in Economics

The repository is designed as an open, collaborative collection of digital exercises and supplementary teaching materials for fundamental economics courses. It is structured into subjects that are often found in economics courses. These subjects allow teachers to identify and integrate those exercises they need, based on the topics they are interested in. All exercises are available in English and Dutch. Selected exercises can be implemented through the Grasple platform directly with a free teacher account. Thematic Exercise Sets Basic Microeconomics: Exercises covering cost concepts, elasticity, optimization, and static market theory. Intermediate Microeconomics: Exercises addressing topics such as asymmetric information, principal-agent problems, and externalities. Mathematics in Economics: Materials that bridge mathematical techniques (like differential equations and linear algebra) with economic applications, created in collaboration with the department of Applied Mathematics at TU Delft.
