CoPs, also referred to as Learning Communities, Learning Teams, and Customized Groups, are widely embraced across post-secondary institutions and various other contexts. These communities serve as collaborative platforms, uniting individuals to collaborate on topics such as teaching methodologies, learning strategies, professional growth, and scholarly research.
