1. From imagining to belonging: Research into teachers-in-training and Communities of Practice Melinda Dooly & Victoria Antoniadou Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
4. Membership & Belonging Imagined Community (beginning with Anderson, 1991) Means of describing the processes by which a sense of nationality exists amongs members who have no contact or apparent links. Visca Barça, Visca Catalunya
5. CoPs & ICs Communities of Practice (beginning with Lave & Wenger, 1991; Wenger 1998) Learning is not merely a cognitive practice. Situated learning: most learning takes place as the individual engages in accessible communities of practice (e.g. tailors; AA meetings). Move from peripheral members towards centre. Imagined Community (Norton 2000; 2001) Means for the learner to reach out beyond one’s immediate environment and experience, thus providing possibility of alignment and commitment to that community. Future teachers participate in situated learning due to imagined (validated) role in imagined community of teaching practitioners . Situated learning Investment

8. Learning is mutual development process between communities and individuals that helps form new identities. Must provide scaffolding of 3 infrastructures: engagement, imagination and alignment (Wenger 1998). Engagement Imagination Alginment Tutorial sessions, school placement, online sites such as moodle & SL. Models of teaching sequences & activities, their own designs, other designs, input from peers & experts, lectures & reading, etc. Try out new practices, take part in peer-teaching; peer-evaluating, self-reflection (place themselves in teacher role with own students AND peers) Juan: your final goal is to make students understand how to summarize in a sentence the whole paragraph, isn't it? Nancy:Yeah, my final goal is that students will be able to write an effective paragraph […] Juan: so, have you thought about working on very very bad examples of topic sentences before asking students to create their own topic sentences??? Nancy: I like that idea---bad examples often work better than good examples!

10. Learning involves a deepening process of participation in a CoP Moving from legitimate peripheral participation To full participation!
20. Peripheral participation (Stated expectations 09/2009) Resolve problems together (tutor and students). Have the tutor as a model of support and guide. Grow as a person, learn to be a teacher. Expand my ‘toolbox’ of experiences that I can use as a future teacher. Become more sure of myself when teaching.

31. Our micro-teaching session was based on the CLT approach and was done using, firstly a VoiceThread presentation and then group work - cooperative learning. To do this, we started the session contextualizing the project and presenting the final product students were expected to do further on: a VoiceThread presentation introducing themselves to Australian students. I would like to point out that we spent quite a lot of time planning this session and rehearsed twice before put it into practice. We built it up from the basis that we wanted to create a micro-teaching plan which has some purposeful and contextualized communicative events . I believe that was the reason why we finally imagined we would get in touch with an Australian school and then we came up with the idea of doing a VoiceThread as a tool to meet new people .
