Virtual Learning Communities
A Practical Way to Tran Teachers
Benjamín Rodríguez Castillo
Abstract
This article presents a proposal aimed at conceiving a different model of attention to and characterization of teachers during their formative process and in their pedagogical practice in correspondence with the new 21st-century educational paradigms. The learning community refers to a project based on a set of successful educational actions that were aimed at social and educational transformation (Elboj & Oliver, 2003). That is, it refers to the educational model that is in line with theories highlighting the key factors for learning, both in interactions and community participation, with the intention of involving people directly or indirectly and influencing the academic development of students regardless of their educational level. From this perspective, the learning community is a transformative project that proposes a dual objective: (a) to respond to the needs of the system and (b) to facilitate interaction among the participants.
