Abstract
This paper analyses an online community of master’s students taking a course in ICT and organisational learning. One assignment for the students was to initiate and facilitate an educational design for organisational learning called Proactive Review in the organisations where they were employed. The study explores the interplay between the students’ learning activities at work and in their master study. By using an online discussion forum on Google groups, they reflected on their experimentation with Proactive Review in their professional organisation in order to learn from the experience and find solutions to the problems they identified. Our research question is:
How do students learn from experience in two contexts, namely as master students and professionals at work?
We used netnography to select qualitative postings from the online community. Our contribution to research shows how students learned from the interaction between the studies and the professional work; and how expansive learning may be supported by online collaboration
