In this book about communities of practice in the international,
higher education sector, the authors articulate the theoretical
foundations of communities of practice (CoPs), research into their
application in higher education, leadership roles and how CoPs
sustain and support professional learning. Research demonstrates
that communities of practice build professional and personal links
both within and across faculty, student services and administrative
and support units. This book describes how community of practice
members may be physically co-located and how social media can be
used to connect members across geographically diverse locations. It
positions higher education communities of practice within the
broader community of practice and social learning literature, and
articulates the importance of community of practice leadership
roles, and the growing focus on the use of social media for
community of practice implementation. The multiple perspectives
provide higher education leaders, academic and professional staff
with the means to establish, or reflect on existing CoPs, by
sharing insights and critical reflections on their implementation
strategies, practical guidelines and ideas on how community of
practice's theoretical underpinnings can be tailored to the higher
education context.
