PLCs Professional Learning Communities PLCs are teachers and administrators that seek and share learning, and act on their learning (Hord, 1997, p. 10) PLCs are associated with workplace educational organizations arranged by subject or grade level by the educational hierarch of educators iFAIT innovative Formative Assessment with Instruction and Technology Marcia J. Talkmitt, EdD 39. CoPs Communities of Practice Often teachers in PLCs turn to communities of practice (CoPs) to develop their own identities and roles to meet the educational organizations goals. CoPs do not operate on agendas or set meetings, they share their experiences and knowledge in free-flowing creative ways that foster new approaches to problems (Wenger & Snyder, 2000) and may meet face-to-face or online. iFAIT innovative Formative Assessment with Instruction and Technology Marcia J.

PLCs and CoPs goals are to embrace the spirit of collaboration and enhance their effectiveness as professionals for the benefit of students. iFAIT innovative Formative Assessment with Instruction and Technology Marcia J.
