| Abstract: | This case study offers an exploratory analysis of the Faculty Learning Community (FLC) aimed at supporting and encouraging the sharing of teaching experiences among faculty members at Universitas 21 Global (U21G). Uncovered is a community in the formative stages of evolutionary development. The results indicate a dominant knowledge sharing pattern characterized by low intensity, variable member participation and selective topical focus. Furthermore, the results also suggest a number of possible reasons for the exhibited behaviour including FLC's academic environment, instrumental nature of the community and its majority adjunct faculty membership. |
