COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE IN UNIVERSITY: A PRELIMINARY STUDY

Original language description

The present paper defines on a theoretical level the concept of the communities of practice and moreover, provides a brief overview of the latest research in the communities of practice with regard to education. Another part of the article focuses on thepre-research of the communities of practice at Faculty of Economics and Management (FEM) Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CULS). Although the authors conform with the opinion that the communities of practice are a natural feature and spontaneously develop wherever there is a need for sharing implicit or tacit knowledge, the pre-research focused on the verification of this premise in order to continue in the research of a quantitative character. The existence of the communities of practice wasverified on the basis of fundamental characteristics following Wenger?s model. Other characteristics, considered significant in relation to the communities of practice by McDermott were also investigated.
