Community Enthusiasts SIG

This message was posted by Chris Kimble to the Online Facilitation list recently. It looks like it will be an interesting book! Is anyone here planning to submit a chapter proposal?

Dear all,
I hope that this call for chapters is of some interest to the members
of this group.

Communities of Practice: Creating Learning Environments for Educators
- Call for Chapters

This call for chapters is for a forthcoming book by Chris Kimble and
Paul Hildreth, "Communities of Practice: Creating Learning
Environments for Educators" which is to be published in 2007 by
Information Age Publishing Inc.  Details of the book and a full
version of the call for chapters can be found at:

http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/mis/CLEE/Call_for_Chapters.html

The aim of the book is to bring together the expertise of people who
have worked with Communities of Practice (CoPs) in authentic
educational settings across the world in a convenient, internationally
based, workbook for people in the field of training and education.  It
is anticipated that this book will act as a resource for practitioners
and academics that work in the field of CoPs and education.

Prospective authors are invited to send a 500-word outline of their
chapter, by e-mail (Word document or plain text), to Chris Kimble
<kimble@cs.york.ac.uk> by May 26, 2006.  The outline should clearly
explain the content of the proposed chapter and suggest a theme and
section under which it might appear in the final book.
