The documented experience with the course participants has shown the contribution of the blog’s architecture as an authorship digital tool that both enables the (re)invention of pedagogical practices in Special Education and presents evidence that favor ongoing teacher (self)training. In such education dynamics, we have noticed characteristics that trigger the composition of a “practice community”, i.e., a group of professionals gathered around common objectives
