Abstract
The first part of this chapter describes and analyzes a community of learning and practice of heutagogy, which included 12 faculty members in a college of education. The ongoing process is a heutagogical one, dealing with theoretical and practical aspects of heutagogy and its applications. The chapter describes the community’s discussions and examines the professional development of its participants. The second part of this chapter presents a possible elaboration of the community of practice into an epistemic community, which is a crucial step in promoting a more general paradigm change in higher education.
