Building learning communities

Kuva
Building learning communities is important since people learn from teachers, materials, and from each other. Sometimes working together in a group is the main learning method. This is good since in the working life people need co-operation skills anyway. When conceptualizing thoughts and even preliminary ideas it is good to get feedback from others and redevelop their own thinking. There are several methods of how to facilitate group bonding and contributing. One example is a dialogical method of learning. This has been developed into the systematical method by DIALE-project (see the website here ).  There are even very detailed methods teachers can use when facilitating learning in groups. These have been profoundly described on the webpage .  Learning communities might face challenges when people come from different backgrounds, for example, different cultures. It is good to acknowledge the differences in cultures in order to understand each other's behavior, which might seem odd
