My #ScienceWeek reading.

I was trying to be good and not buy any new books until I finish some of the ones sitting on my shelf. Couldn’t resist this cover though.

Today’s reading, Situated Learning by Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger. I believe this is where the term, Communities of Practice came from
