          Abstract

          Resumen El presente artículo da cuenta de una revisión bibliográfica sobre comunidades de práctica cultivadas en el contexto educativo. Su propósito es servir de base documental, para la visualización de un panorama preliminar, en el posterior desarrollo de una investigación sobre los efectos que tiene la configuración de una comunidad de práctica en la enseñanza de las matemáticas, cuando es conformada por docentes de educación básica primaria de una misma institución educativa. Por lo que se presentan los principales hallazgos de investigaciones relacionadas con tres niveles de la educación colombiana, a saber: la universidad y la educación básica secundaria y media, donde se evidencian una mayor cantidad de investigaciones al compararse con la educación básica primaria. Una de las principales conclusiones, es que las comunidades de práctica desempeñan un papel fundamental, cuando se utilizan para mejorar los procesos educativos permitiendo fortalecer los mecanismos de mejoramiento de las prácticas pedagógicas.

          Abstract This article reports a literature review on communities of practice developed in the educational context. Its purpose is to serve as a documentary basis for the visualization of a preliminary panorama in the subsequent development of a research on the effects of the configuration of a community of practice in the teaching of mathematics, when it is formed by elementary school teachers from the same educational institution. Therefore, the main findings of research related to three levels of Colombian education are presented, namely: university and basic secondary and middle school education, where a greater amount of research is evidenced when compared to basic elementary education. One of the main conclusions is that communities of practice play a fundamental role when they are used to improve educational processes, allowing the strengthening of mechanisms for the improvement of pedagogical practices.

          Resumo Este artigo relata uma revisão bibliográfica sobre comunidades de prática cultivadas no contexto educacional. Tem por finalidade servir de base documental, para a visualização de um panorama preliminar, no posterior desenvolvimento de uma investigação sobre os efeitos que a configuração de uma comunidade de prática tem no ensino da matemática, quando este é constituído por professores de educação, escola primária da mesma instituição de ensino. Portanto, são apresentados os principais resultados das pesquisas relacionadas aos três níveis da educação colombiana, a saber: a universidade e a educação básica secundária e média, onde se evidencia uma maior quantidade de pesquisas quando comparada à educação primária básica. Uma das principais conclusões é que as comunidades de prática desempenham um papel fundamental, quando são utilizadas para a melhoria dos processos educativos, permitindo fortalecer os mecanismos de melhoria das práticas pedagógicas.

            Thinking together: What makes Communities of Practice work?

            In this article, we develop the founding elements of the concept of Communities of Practice by elaborating on the learning processes happening at the heart of such communities. In particular, we provide a consistent perspective on the notions of knowledge, knowing and knowledge sharing that is compatible with the essence of this concept – that learning entails an investment of identity and a social formation of a person. We do so by drawing richly from the work of Michael Polanyi and his conception of personal knowledge, and thereby we clarify the scope of Communities of Practice and offer a number of new insights into how to make such social structures perform well in professional settings. The conceptual discussion is substantiated by findings of a qualitative empirical study in the UK National Health Service. As a result, the process of ‘thinking together’ is conceptualized as a key part of meaningful Communities of Practice where people mutually guide each other through their understandings of the same problems in their area of mutual interest, and this way indirectly share tacit knowledge. The collaborative learning process of ‘thinking together’, we argue, is what essentially brings Communities of Practice to life and not the other way round.
