This article discusses challenges of language differences in qualitative research, when participants and the main researcher have same non-English native data lead to an English publication. Challenges translation are discussed from perspective that interpretation meaning is core research. As also interpretive act, may get lost process. Recommendations suggested, aiming contribute best possible representation understanding interpreted experiences thereby validity
A common model for learning from evaluation assumes that occurs when evaluators transmit findings and conclusions to programme participants stakeholders. Learning is then understood as a cognitive act, happening in the mind of an individual separated rest our activities. In recent years, this has been challenged by scholars who argue ‘situated learning’ ‘communities practice’. This alternative conception emphasizes context-bound nature (versus material abstracted context) relationships...

Practitioners attempt to strengthen transparency and effectiveness of administrative systems introducing rational cycles. When issues are managed, ambitions must stated, options assessed, optimal chosen performance monitored evaluated. This cycle rests upon assumptions that often untenable. ambiguous, interpretative spaces exist; when exist, strict cycles do not work because required conditions cannot met....
