THE LEARNING COMMUNITIES. THE SCHOOL OF ADULTS OF THE VERNEDA. A EXPERIENCE OF LEARNING COMMUNITIES

Abstract

Learning communities are a project of social and cultural transformation of an educational centre and its environment. In Spain, the key reference in adult education is found in La Verneda Sant Marti School of Education. Born in the late seventies, under the slogan of "a school where people dare to dream," La Verneda Sant Marti develops dialogic learning with a high quality education, democratic, open to the community, participatory, pluralistic, with a capacity for change and it is free. In this article our approach to the educational model of learning communities is based on the experience at the school for adults in La Verneda
