I will pay for the following essay Living and Learning in a Community of Learners. The essay is to be 12 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

What constitutes a community? It is generally known as a group of people living and working together, usually sharing a common culture or set of values. Residents in a plush subdivision live very differently from those in fishing villages. When one says learning community, the first thing that comes to mind is schools. Indeed, a school is a community whose defining, underlying culture is one of learning. Barth (2000) shares that a community of learners is one “whose most important condition for membership is that one be a learner –whether one is called a student, teacher, principal parent, support staff or certified staff.” The neighborhood where a school is located may also be considered part of that learning community if it shares a mutual commitment to learning with its school. The learning community is nurturing, supportive, sometimes challenging but always caring and concerned with the development of its children. Networking with and engaging the cooperation of the local government, media, police, health, and business and large-scale institutions may strengthen the support for learning and development in learning communities (Senge, 2000).&nbsp.

In creating a learning community, knowledge acquisition is supported. A sense of excitement is palpable when the passion for exploring new realms in education is shared by the members of the community. “The bonus is the newly developing sense of self and sense of empowerment that accompanies the process. The power of community is great. The power of a learning community is even greater, as it supports the intellectual as well as personal growth and development of its members” (Palloff and Pratt, 1999, p. 163).&nbsp.
