Better SEARCHING supports a COMMUNITY of PRACTICE

Here is a short video clip that shows how the SEARCH function in the AMBIT manual works, and where it is... as well as demonstrating how you can use it to peek at OTHER teams' working practices, and compare, contrast and share best practice. We do not promote the idea of "AMBIT teams", but rather locally expert teams that use AMBIT as a framework or a stepping stone to develop and share their own local excellence. The search bar is one way we are trying to foster this "Community of Practice". The ideas of Community of Practice are particularly articulated by Etienne Wenger and colleagues - it is a really neat way of seeing what the AMBIT project is using the manual to support.
