Collaborative academic work and learning through Communities of Practice (CoP) constitutes a strategy for articulation and exchange between institutions and / or teachers, who decide to voluntarily associate and join efforts, experiences, and knowledge to achieve common academic goals such as produce an OER. This exchange will have a greater scope if they are supported by the design of CoP mediated with information and communication technologies (ICT) as alternatives for communication, collaboration, and knowledge creation through the design of Communities of Practice. The present paper has as its first objective to show two concrete experiences developed for the production of Open Educational Resources through the development of communities of Practice. The potential of the production of Open Educational Resources obtained from the activities carried out within the framework of the international project for the investigation of the Impact of COVID-19 on parental engagement across 23 countries is presented. In a second objective, this paper presents different virtual tools that allow collaborative academic work that facilitates the design, monitoring, and evaluation of projects in a ubiquitous way, making use of technologies and digital tools for the development of Communities of Practice. CoP training is essential for the development of educational projects and the creation of Open Educational Resources since they are not limited by geography, profession, sex, race, age or religion while emphasizing our humanity, curiosity, and shared creativity.
