| Abstract: | This article investigates the processes of learning emerging when members of different communities of practice (CoPs) are demanded to meet together as a formally constituted multidisciplinary team. Multidisciplinary co-operation is not so much to learn from each others' talk, but to learn to talk in this new arena. Three practices are identified which facilitate learning across CoPs: organizing discussions, acknowledging other perspectives and challenging assumptions. |
