| I have experience of this theme in practice | I don't have experience of this theme in practice |
| ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
|a. What experience do you have? Share this with the group. | a. What has held you back from putting this collaborative approach into practice? |
|b. What successes and challenges have you faced? | b. Aside from what has held you back, are there any additional challenges you forsee in putting this approach into practice? |
|c. Look specifically at the challenges. How can you work together in your groups to start to overcome these challenges?| c. Look specifically at the challenges. How can you work together in your groups to start to overcome these challenges? |
|d. How can you elevate your existing knowledge/practice to the next step? | d. How can you take learnings from these discussions to begin to change your practice? |

- [name=Andrea]
- a.I'm teching an interdisciplinray subject (DH) which includes covering topics other departments might teach. I also had to co-teach/co-design modules and module parts with other lecturers.
- b. suspicion from disciplinary teachers (both from STEM and Humanities); ownership over material and feeling of competition; is it a problem at all to feel ownership over material if it is research-based?; lack of platforms to communicate, lack of knowledge about other faculties; institutional politics; different scales of details.
- c. Just be human - kind, informal, making connections over a beer -> my experience so far showed that in a friendly environment co-teaching and co-design worked uncomparably better than in a rigid, professional setting.
- d. I started to actively reach out to people teaching similar things, and request their opinion and guidance on my own material. It includes joining interest groups and other activity groups to induce trust.

- [name=Sam]
- a. Lots of similar courses taught across the institution, sometimes competing course delivery
- b. Re-use and publish OER
