Research Abstract |
In this study, I analyzed an academic community as a community of practice through social network analysis. With a focus on legitimate peripheral participation, centralities were used in order to quantify the positions of participants in the community. I analyzed the relationship between the variation of the participants’ respective positions and their role acquisitions in the community and examined the validity of using the network approach on communities of practice. The results of the analysis indicate the availability of degree centrality as the measurement of legitimate peripheral participation in an academic community
