Abstract
The Community of Practice of E-learning (COPE) represents a virtual space for exchanging, sharing, and resolving problems faced by actors in e-learning. One of the major concerns of CoPEs is to favor practices of reuse and exchange through the capitalization of techno-pedagogical knowledge and know-how. In this paper, we present a conceptual model of CoPEs. This model constitutes the theoretical platform upon which an ontology dedicated to CoPEs will be built. This ontology aims to annotate the CoPE's knowledge resources and services, so as to enhance individual and organizational learning within CoPEs.
