Lave, Jean; Wenger, Etienne (1991). Situated Learning: Legitimate Peripheral Participation. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. ISBN 978-0-521-42374-8.

Lave and Wenger's "Situated Learning: Legitimate Peripheral Participation" focuses on how people learn through participating in real-life activities and contexts. They argue that learning is not a solitary, individual activity but rather a social practice that occurs within a community of people who share the same interests and goals. The authors describe how learners start as peripheral participants in a community of practice and gradually become more involved and knowledgeable.
