ABSTRACT

This article reports on a qualitative case study investigating a multi-year, professional development as a form of community of practice (CoP). Data were collected over 4 years and included pre-post surveys, field notes, and archival data. Findings suggest a refinement of the CoP framework to include the existence of micro-communities of practice (MCoP). MCoPs only exist as areas of specialisation within a larger, complex CoP. We describe the emergence of two such micro-communities and propose the phenomenon needs further research.

(微型)实践社区中的专家学习:考察教师专业发展的案例研究

摘要

本文报告了一项定性案例研究,该研究调查了作为实践社区 (CoP) 形式的多年专业发展。数据收集超过 4 年,包括事前调查、实地记录和档案数据。调查结果建议对 CoP 框架进行改进,以包括微型实践社区 (MCoP) 的存在。MCoP 仅作为更大、复杂的 CoP 中的专业领域而存在。我们描述了两个这样的微型社区的出现,并提出这种现象需要进一步研究。
