The document discusses different social structures that can support city-wide collaborative learning. It describes structures like communities of practice that are focused on specific tasks, learning ecologies made of overlapping communities, and "mycorrhizae" communities without defined membership. New technologies enable loosely coupled groups like smart mobs. Design challenges include supporting exploration across multiple social worlds and understanding the roles of virtual and physical spaces.
