Zank, Cláudia; Behar, Patricia Alejandra
International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Cognition and Exploratory Learning in the Digital Age (CELDA) (Fort Worth, TX, Oct 22-24, 2013)
The various tools available on Web 2.0 enable the interactions in a Community of Practice (CoP) to be optimized and may discourage the participation of members. Thus, the choice of the tools is fundamental for the growth and maintenance of a CoP. With a focus on this and, from the analysis of the characteristics of the group and the activities which will be developed, this article deals with the configuration process of a Community of Practice in the CTE - Collective Text Editor. As such, the article discusses the CoP and presents the CTE as the meeting place and use of this community, since it corresponds to the demands and needs of the group.
