A good explanation of communities of practice. Communities of practice consist of a group of individuals engaged in a process of collective learning in a shared domain.
What I thought was cool about this particular article was that it showed all the various organizations that were/ are participating in CoPs. I think it's good to look at things in context to see how theory turns into practice.
The table was the other element that I found helpful. That sort of at-a-glance feature makes it easy to skim, something that people do more and more because of the influence of the Internet.
Hi! I agree with Buffy in that the table was one of the most powerful pieces of this article. It broke the concept down and helped me understand communities of practice in many real world settings.
