Notes

  1. http://ec.europa.eu/education/lifelong-learning-programme/erasmus_en.htm.

  2. In her seminal book “Plans and Situated Action” Lucy Suchman discusses the usage of plans. She highlights that humans typically use them as a resource to act and not as a set of instructions to follow blindly.

  3. To keep things simple I will speak of “the Australian system” even though most aspects I outline apply equally to Universities in New Zealand. Similarly, I will speak of “the German system” while many aspects apply to Universities in other German-speaking and neighboring countries also.
