Abstract

Learning processes are an infinite chain of knowledge transformation initiated by human collaboration. Our intention is to analyze E-Learning commu-nities. The current drawback of communities is a lack of common vocabularies that can be used for an E-Learning community description, design, evolution, and comparison. We examine structural and semantic parameters of E-Learning communities gathered in MediaBase of the PROLEARN Network of Excellence for professional learning. Using the parameters and the community-of-practice theory we define more standard description for a particular community or a set of communities and to identify factors that are essential for identifying overlappings between communities.
