Supporting education during crises similar to the COVID-19-pandemic : A case study on factors that affect the work of supporting education during crises similar to the COVID-19-pandemic (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna uppsats består av en fallstudie vars syfte är att bidra med kunskap kring vilka faktorer som påverkar arbetet av att stödja utbildning på ett lärosäte för högre utbildning, i relation till digital transformation, vid kriser som COVID-19-pandemin. Studien bidrar även med förståelse för relaterade begrepp som har ett samband med digital transformation vid liknande kriser. För att uppfylla syftet har ett valt arbetssystem på ett lärosäte för högre utbildning undersökts genom semi-strukturerade intervjuer med ett urval av respondenter. Det studerade arbetssystemet har valts ut för att dels få en överblick över arbetssystemet och dess roller, dels för att ta reda på hur detta arbetssystem förhållit sig till begrepp som har en koppling till digital transformation vid COVID-19-pandemin. Resultatet visar att begreppen ambidexteritet, agilitet, digital motståndskraft och digital transformation har ett samband, och att dessa begrepp är faktorer som påverkar arbetet av att stödja utbildning vid kriser som liknar COVID-19-pandemin. Andra viktiga faktorer som har en koppling till dessa begrepp och anses ha en påverkan är kursplaner, utvärderingar, IT-kompetens, innovationsförmåga samt digitala verktyg. Dessa slutsatser baseras på upplevelser och erfarenheter från de representerade rollerna ur det valda arbetssystemet.

Abstract [en]

This is a case study whose purpose is to contribute with knowledge about the factors that affect the work of supporting education at a higher education institution, in relation to digital transformation, in crises such as the COVID-19-pandemic. The study also contributes with an understanding of related concepts that are related to digital transformation in similar crises. To fulfill this purpose, a selected work system at a higher education institution has been studied through semi-structured interviews with a sample of respondents. The studied work system has been selected to get an overview of the roles within the work system, as well as to find out how this work system relates to concepts related to digital transformation in the COVID-19-pandemic. The results shows that the concepts of ambidexterity, agility, digital resilience, and digital transformation are related, and that these concepts are factors that influence the work of supporting education in crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. Other important factors that are linked to these concepts and are considered to have an impact are syllabi, evaluations, IT skills, innovation ability and digital tools. These conclusions are based on experiences and opinions by the represented roles from the chosen work system.
