Boundary crossing (Beach, 2003; Engestr¨om, Engestr¨om, & K¨arkk¨ainen, 1995) means that students move across different learning environments and different workplaces, and negotiate between these different contexts. It is assumed that in this way students not only add to their knowledge and skills (vertical development) but also develop the capacity to work in different contexts (horizontal development). The fourth practice, resituation of knowledge and skill involves using and transforming knowledge and skills in different contexts.
