1. Identifying design patterns
in international
collaborative learning:
two contrasting case studies.

CAL’09, 23-25 March, Brighton: The challenges of the design pattern paradigm

2. My Questions
* What is the role of methodology and
theory in pattern mining in learning
communities?
* Are there universal patterns supporting
the design of in international learning
communities? If not, how can a pattern capture
the success of a solution but also report on
limitations across learning contexts?

3. Pattern Identification: Case 1
* Long-term, ethnographically informed study: find international patterns
* Collaborative design in HK/Korean, HK/Taiwanese, HK/Austrian teams

4. Challenges: Case 1
* 11 Patterns > data triangulation: not all internationally valid
(10) GLOBAL RESOLUTION
Local tutors predominantly instruct local teams in this international
collaborative design environment. How can you support the global
virtual team to coordinate and resolve potentially conflicting local
instructions? Let local instructors advice not only local
teams but also global virtual teams in video-mediated
online tutorials. Due to the strong Hierarchical Authority
Orientation of the students, the advice is taken without objection.
This resolves possible uncertainties of the students and restores the
harmony in Collectivistic Community Orientation cultures.You can
use the pattern STRUCTURED CHAT to achieve GLOBAL
RESOLUTION.

* Study 14 weeks: find international patterns self-directed learning
* Collaborative design in mixed European teams (10 countries)
* Researcher team: f-2-f pattern workshop, synchronous wiki posting

7. Comparison
* Every international learning environment carries implicit values
- Case 1: design solutions in agreement with all team members
- Case 2: self-directed learning in international teams
* Identifying values is important to design pattern mining
* Context in which patterns are valid: limitation and strength of a pattern
* Pattern mining process: is design process in itself (ill-defined, wicket,
value driven, synergetic) > the design pattern is like a designed
product / system!
* Misuse > New Context > New design pattern?
* Internationally and generally valid patterns possible?
