Dove lavorare e imparare, come e soprattutto con chi, un tema che coinvolge i liberi professionisti nel coworking, ma anche dipendenti, studenti ed educatori. Lo scopo principale di questa ricerca è di analizzare il legame emergente tra l’apprendimento trasformativo e gli ambienti di coworking strutturati. Gli obiettivi specifici sono identificare strategie implicite ed esplicite di apprendimento formale e informale all’interno dei nuovi ambienti di lavoro. Inoltre, intendiamo indagare sul tipo di competenze che i coworkers acquisiscono anche in relazione alla Raccomandazione europea (2018), e il tipo di governance dell’istruzione sviluppata con i contesti di interazione locale e globale. È stata fatta un’intervista semi-strutturata a venti coordinatori di coworking, i quali hanno anche compilato una griglia sulle competenze acquisite dai coworkers.

Abstract

The questions of where to work and learn, how and especially with whom represent a theme that involves coworking freelancers, but also employees, students and educators. The main aim of this research is to analyze the emerging link between transformative learning and structured coworking environments. The specific objectives are to identify implicit and explicit strategies of formal and informal learning within new working environments. In addition, we intend to investigate the kind of competences that coworkers acquire in relation to the European Recommendation (2018) and the type of education governance developed in the context of local and global interactions. The research method used encompasses qualitative and quantitative elements. Twenty coworking coordinators are submitted to a semi-structured interview and have compiled a grid on the skills acquired by coworkers. Sampling is intentional: among the different kinds of coworking, only those with educational functions have been selected selected.
