uncovering variations
of conceptions of the
collective experience
as they are described
Method: Semi-structured
interviews (Fontana & Frey,
1994)
Purposeful sampling often
used in phenomenography
to maximise ‘information-
rich cases’ relevant to
research (Patton, 2002)
Sampling strategy: Collective

Developing a collaborative learning design framework for open cross-institutional academic development courses
7 April 2016 Pool of Meanings
Cross-boundary learning
through modes of
participation
… as a blurred formal and informal learning
experience
… as a valued informal learning experience
… as an assessment challenge for formal
participation
… as an opportunity to explore recognition
for learning
Cross-boundary learning
through time and place
… as a continuum
… as an interruption
Cross-boundary learning
through culture and language
… as inclusion
… as exclusion
Cross-boundary learning
through mixed professional
contexts
… as fertiliser
… as discomfort
POOL3:Cross-Boundaries
Cross-boundary learning
through culture and language
… as inclusion
“I like the basic concept of the course. I like the fact that I was collaborating with participants not only professional
backgrounds, but linguistic background, cultural background educational background. […] We had to remember again our
English. Not only in a written dimension, but in an oral one too. Something that was totally challenging. And, of course, the
rest of our participants who were heroes to hear us, they supported us and never made any statement or insult, for
example. They were really encouraging and supportive. In that way they were trying to, I think, they were trying to set up
‘we’re not here to judge you about the fact that maybe you, make errors or you mix perhaps some words and I don't know
what else, but we’re here to share our thoughts, opinions, ideas’. And, of course, there was an image that was shared in the
community that was ‘never judge a person who doesn’t speak your language. He just knows another one’. So this motto
was, was present in the, in the community. No one never said anything about errors or syntax, syntactical or grammatical
errors.” C1
“We were from two different countries in my group. And that was, I think that was more attractive for me rather than
different institutions. I mean if everybody was from UK, maybe because I think, or I feel that I know the UK system and how
it works, maybe it wouldn't have made any difference.
I see how things are working in different countries, because maybe we are taking things for granted. Maybe I think that
everybody's doing e-learning in a certain way, for example. And then I realise that they are doing it differently or they're not
doing it or, you know? So from that point of view it was good. […] I think that I felt good of contributing with my experience
to what they're doing. So when, they ask something, and I saw that it can work in a certain way because we have done it
here in UK I could tell them what we have done and then they can experiment. So from that point of view it felt good, of
sharing information.” F7
“We were more people at the beginning in the PBL group which can be difficult to handle. But I think the Google hangout
works better than Adobe Connect when you are like 6, 7, 8 people in a discussion. But then we were more like 3, 2, 5
people and of course it is smaller group, it is easier to feel safe, to feel connected with the people there and in the end we
really were 3 Swedish people left so we could speak in Swedish. And that of course is our native language, that made it
perhaps easier to communicate. We were writing in English and talking in Swedish. It would have been bizzar if we were
talking English to each other. But perhaps, I mean if there was a fourth person there, sometimes the facilitator was
participating and our discussions were in English.” F6
Cross-boundary learning
through culture and language
… as exclusion
“I find it useful to learn from other people's experiences. The international nature. I think it's useful, I
think it was, it was useful to share those experiences, um, but I think sometimes the language barrier,
like there was a lack of confidence from some members of the group, which was fine in some aspects,
um, but meant that in discussions it felt like the UK people tended to take over. Not because they, you
know, they wanted to, but I always got the impression it was, like a lack of confidence, and, to be honest
I would probably find it quite hard if I had to do it in a foreign language and keep up with the following a
conversation, to be able to do that.” F2
“I felt a little bit anxiety, because I have 1 year, 2 years my English I can understand very well but I don’t
use it. I had a long time to use my English. So the language it was problem for me. But I find it a
challenge to make it better. […]I didn't feel the confidence about my writing skills. So I read it [the
information] and I read it again. I couldn’t manage the time. I couldn’t realise how many hours I could
use for a specific section because, I was trying to read and read again my texts. And I lost, I was losing a
lot of time during this process. […] I didn’t participate in a group, because I didn’t feel confident about
the language and I felt a little bit, I felt the pressure I didn’t-, I wanted to have a little time to adjust in
the community and it was in the last week I feel more confident to communicate, to react with others.
But it was the last week.” C10

  • 21. Cross-boundary learning through modes of participation … as a blurred formal and informal learning experience … as a valued informal learning experience … as an assessment challenge for formal participation … as an opportunity to explore recognition for learning Cross-boundary learning through time and place … as a continuum … as an interruption Cross-boundary learning through culture and language … as inclusion … as exclusion Cross-boundary learning through mixed professional contexts … as fertiliser … as discomfort POOL3:Cross-Boundaries
  • 22. Cross-boundary learning through culture and language … as inclusion “I like the basic concept of the course. I like the fact that I was collaborating with participants not only professional backgrounds, but linguistic background, cultural background educational background. […] We had to remember again our English. Not only in a written dimension, but in an oral one too. Something that was totally challenging. And, of course, the rest of our participants who were heroes to hear us, they supported us and never made any statement or insult, for example. They were really encouraging and supportive. In that way they were trying to, I think, they were trying to set up ‘we’re not here to judge you about the fact that maybe you, make errors or you mix perhaps some words and I don't know what else, but we’re here to share our thoughts, opinions, ideas’. And, of course, there was an image that was shared in the community that was ‘never judge a person who doesn’t speak your language. He just knows another one’. So this motto was, was present in the, in the community. No one never said anything about errors or syntax, syntactical or grammatical errors.” C1 “We were from two different countries in my group. And that was, I think that was more attractive for me rather than different institutions. I mean if everybody was from UK, maybe because I think, or I feel that I know the UK system and how it works, maybe it wouldn't have made any difference. I see how things are working in different countries, because maybe we are taking things for granted. Maybe I think that everybody's doing e-learning in a certain way, for example. And then I realise that they are doing it differently or they're not doing it or, you know? So from that point of view it was good. […] I think that I felt good of contributing with my experience to what they're doing. So when, they ask something, and I saw that it can work in a certain way because we have done it here in UK I could tell them what we have done and then they can experiment. So from that point of view it felt good, of sharing information.” F7 “We were more people at the beginning in the PBL group which can be difficult to handle. But I think the Google hangout works better than Adobe Connect when you are like 6, 7, 8 people in a discussion. But then we were more like 3, 2, 5 people and of course it is smaller group, it is easier to feel safe, to feel connected with the people there and in the end we really were 3 Swedish people left so we could speak in Swedish. And that of course is our native language, that made it perhaps easier to communicate. We were writing in English and talking in Swedish. It would have been bizzar if we were talking English to each other. But perhaps, I mean if there was a fourth person there, sometimes the facilitator was participating and our discussions were in English.” F6
  • 23. Cross-boundary learning through culture and language … as exclusion “I find it useful to learn from other people's experiences. The international nature. I think it's useful, I think it was, it was useful to share those experiences, um, but I think sometimes the language barrier, like there was a lack of confidence from some members of the group, which was fine in some aspects, um, but meant that in discussions it felt like the UK people tended to take over. Not because they, you know, they wanted to, but I always got the impression it was, like a lack of confidence, and, to be honest I would probably find it quite hard if I had to do it in a foreign language and keep up with the following a conversation, to be able to do that.” F2 “I felt a little bit anxiety, because I have 1 year, 2 years my English I can understand very well but I don’t use it. I had a long time to use my English. So the language it was problem for me. But I find it a challenge to make it better. […]I didn't feel the confidence about my writing skills. So I read it [the information] and I read it again. I couldn’t manage the time. I couldn’t realise how many hours I could use for a specific section because, I was trying to read and read again my texts. And I lost, I was losing a lot of time during this process. […] I didn’t participate in a group, because I didn’t feel confident about the language and I felt a little bit, I felt the pressure I didn’t-, I wanted to have a little time to adjust in the community and it was in the last week I feel more confident to communicate, to react with others. But it was the last week.” C10
