    This article does a great job explaining what a CoP is and how it is different from other communities. The article defines a Cop as, "Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly." These CoPs are different from other communities because they have three crucial characteristics: domain, community, and practice. Members have a shared interest in the community's domain of interest. Members participate in their community and interact regularly. Members practice and create experiences to share and learn from in relation to their domain. I like this article because it is brief but very informative.
