In this article, we attempt to understand the two different approaches to APEL within the framework of Goethe's 'natural phenomenology', which essentially attempts to understand phenomena in their own right, without analysing them into parts. An initial analysis would suggest that in the UK the APEL process reflects a conception of experience and learning as being built up of a number of smaller units. In France, on the other hand, the process involves instead a more holistic approach to the evaluation and understanding of experience and learningItem Learning and Teaching in the Disciplines: Challenging Knowledge, Ubiquitous Change(Routledge, 2012-01) Bamber, Veronica; Bamber, Veronica; Saunders, Murray; Trowler, PaulThe 'tribes and territories' metaphor for the cultures of academic disciplines and their roots in different knowledge characteristics has been used by those interested in university life and work since the early 1990s. This book draws together research, data and theory to show how higher education has gone through major change since then and how social theory has evolved in parallel. Together these changes mean there is a need to re-theorise academic life in a way which reflects changed contexts in universities in the twenty-first century, and so a need for new metaphors.Item Learning and Teaching, Disciplines and Social Practice Theory(Routledge, 2012-01) Bamber, Veronica; Bamber, Veronica; Saunders, Murray; Trowler, PaulItem Academic practices and the disciplines in the 21st century(Routledge, 2012-01) Trowler, Paul; Saunders, Murray; Bamber, Veronica; Bamber, Veronica; Saunders, Murray; Trowler, PaulItem Challenging Students: Enabling Inclusive Learning(Routledge, 2015-07) Bamber, Veronica; Jones, AnnaItem Enhancing student engagement and learning through programme redesign: experiences from undergraduate and post graduate radiography programmes at Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh(TESEP, 2007) Meikle, D.; Blyth, Christine; Cockbain, Margaret; Morss, K.; Bovill, C.; Peacock, Susi
