Bramblewood Learning Community is a project‐based homeschool co‐op that incorporates independent learning, Socratic discussions, and real world activities.
More than one hundred years ago, John Dewey espoused an aligned belief that classrooms should be a model of the family, a complete community where students would be nurtured and grow through the learning culture. His profound belief in democracy and progressive education focused his pedagogical philosophy around creating civically engaged citizens. This ideal is one that is critically needed in 2020—the year where racial and social justice and a global pandemic have unearthed and tested individual and systemic rights and responsibilities, requiring civically engaged citizens to move us through this unprecedented time. This article is an article of stories to encourage and anchor the reader in the mission and vision of two purpose-filled organizations (Tribes Learning Community and Peace Learning Center) that have taken Dewey's beliefs and philosophy in a civically engaged, democratic classroom to the level of restorative action to build safe and courageous learning communities of trust and care for our students and the future of our world beyond the year 2020.

The aim in this study was to identify how college students' experience of the online learning community influences their community identification and learning engagement. We used an online survey and the participants were 568 college students in the New Oriental English School's online
learning community in China. The results indicated that three dimensions of community experience, namely, information experience, entertainment experience, and interactive experience, each exhibit significant positive associations with community identity, which, in turn contributes to students'
learning engagement. Moreover, the finding confirmed the significant mediating effect of community identity between the three dimensions of community experience and learning engagement. The results give a deeper understanding of the role of community experience in influencing students' attitudes
and behaviors in the context of an online learning community.

L. J. Cronbach (Designing Evaluation of Educational and Social Programs, San Francisco: Jossey-Bass, 1982) argues that evaluators can be understood as educators. This insight forms the basis for the philosophy of evaluations evolved from confrontation with problems arising in a major evaluation project in New Zealand & from dissatisfaction with the existing philosophical foundations of evaluation theory. This model is sufficiently broad philosophically not only to subsume humanistic & scientific models, but to transcend them. The notion of a learning community is taken as central to the practice of evaluation. Implications of this theory for the practice of evaluation are considered. 88 References. Modified HA

Recently, higher education has focused on "learning communities." This
study examines a process in which students create expectations for their community of learners. The expectations provide the basis for assessment of students and the
program. Across three cohorts, common themes arise. The major themes from students' expectations of faculty are that faculty should be organized, use a variety of
teaching methods, and provide mentoring. Students primarily want their peers to
participate actively and constructively in class, have academic honesty, and contribute to class in a civil, respectful manner . Study findings indicate that students are
empowered in finding their collective voice and holding each other accountable for
classroom community. Using the transformative power of a learning community to
improve both student classroom behaviors and faculty teaching appears to be a
promising practice.
