ACADEMIC TECHNOLOGY CENTER OF UFRGS AS A COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE AND POSSIBILITY OF CREATION OF NON-FORMAL LEARNING SPACES: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc.

Provide authentic learning experiences in the training of students is a challenge for many educational institutions. The search for ongoing initiatives that can contribute to achieving this objective may expose possibilities for future actions. In this work we present the results of an ethnographic study in a Center of Academic Technology of a Brazilian public university. We assume that its knowledge management model can be used to foster non-formal learning spaces. As a result, we were able to typify it as a community of practice, identifying its structural elements. This characterization can inspire the creation of similar centers in other teaching institutions, assisting professionals interested in expanding the training opportunities for their students.
