当新手成为实践社区的一员时，必须采用一定的社区规范来参与，这些规范包括群体的社会规范。本文从实践社区中合法外围参与的分析角度，探讨了饼干作为社区参与和物理研究小组成员代理的社会作用。我们分析了一个物理研究小组每周研究会议的人种学案例研究的数据。导师们在每次会议上都会带来饼干，并将饼干视为对研究生工作的赞赏。这些饼干扮演了一个微妙的角色，引导客人和学生进入科学对话和参与。通过cookie，会员还可以分享个人历史和故事，帮助会员加强会员资格。这个研究小组对社会规范的研究是一个更大的物理专家身份发展研究的一部分。
When becoming a member of a community of practice, a novice must adopt certain community norms to participate, and these include the social norms of the group. Using the analytical perspective of Legitimate Peripheral Participation in a Community of Practice, this paper explores the social role of cookies as agents for community participation and membership in a physics research group. We analyze data from an ethnographic case study of a physics research group weekly research meeting. The mentors bring cookies to each meeting and view the cookies as a token of appreciation for the graduate students’ work. These cookies take on a subtler role of initiating guests and students into scientific conversations and participation. Via the cookies, members also share personal histories and stories that help members strengthen their membership. The study of social norms in this research group is part of a larger study of physics expert identity development.
