Towards an educating community

• capogna_qtimes_luglio-2014.pdf

Abstract

The social system is profoundly changed, producing important consequences both in the school, and in our "communities." The concept of community is polysemic and various, depending on the perspective from which we study it. So, this essay focuses on the nature of the school as educational community. We try to understand how the concept of community is evolved from the traditional to a more contemporary vision (§ 1); then we consider the meaning of virtual communities (§ 2) and, finally, the notion of educating community (§ 3).
