Enhancing Classroom CoPs Through Reflection
Communities of Practice (CoP) has without a doubt impacted the management of the language classroom and the engagement of learners. Therefore, it is important for language teachers to facilitate a more cohesive community in the classroom to enhance students' learning experience. This presentation will provide both theoretical and practical knowledge to engage students' socio-emotional perspectives for better knowledge sharing and learning.
