… when I arrived in the UK in 1999 I was a PhD student in the Department of Foreign Languages, Translation and Interpretation of the Ionian University and almost ready, I thought, to submit my thesis in the area of translating German children’s literature into Greek after three years of full-time and immersive research in […]
Time has started flying… literally. I am now more nervous than ever. I have been preparing for the viva since one month after submission of the thesis on the 5th of May… for almost 3 months… The thesis was a companion this summer again and traveled with me to Greece, on a boat in the […]
I thought it would never happen. But now it did. Yesterday. After a constructive meeting with the supervisory team with Sandra ad Keith as well as Norrie who chairs the progress meetings, it was decided to agree a submission date. Some more work needs to be done, and I am determined to do this but […]
I have been thinking about the timelines I created for my PhD thesis and while this study is in academic development, I can not ignore the developments in Learning Technology in the UK and have therefore created a third timeline that synthesises the developments in Academic Development and Learning Technology in the UK. Timeline of […]
In my previous post I shared the timeline of academic development in the UK I created for the related literature review section of my thesis.

One of the main outputs of this phenomenographic study is the cross-boundary collaborative open learning framework. More info about my study can be […]
My summer has been fruitful in the end and reflecting on the rework of Chapter 2 and capturing the process here has been extremely valuable. So I decided to do the same for Chapter 3. It feels scary as this chapter is probably the one that fills me with fear, with horror… but it is […]
Since January 2013 I have been a part-time PhD student at Edinburgh Napier University. A lot have happened since then and my previously started and incomplete PhD in translation many years ago and 80,000 words later that didn’t lead to anything are not helpful to put me in a positive mindset. Can I do this? […]

It provides new insights for academic developers and course designers about the […]
