Furthermore, the narratives elicit the synchronic way of the complex process of identity construction as well as its flow and its transience. We also observed a major incidence of co-construction of professional identities in the Community of Practice’s (Moodle) interactions, showing itself mainly as a sharing of emotions, realizations, ...
