CHEVEZ PONCE, Florlenis. Learning Communities: An Option for the Costa Rican Socially Challenged and Under Vulnerable Condition Population. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.1, pp.585-601. ISSN 1409-4703.

This essay presents fundamental elements in order to provide an answer to the requirements, interests, and needs of a lagged and socially challenged population which place this population in conditions of vulnerability for which the concept of learning communities is presented taking as reference the educative project of the Special Center in Theories and Overcoming Practices of Inequalities (CREA) of the University of Barcelona, Spain. The basis of this proposal is the successful performance at shaping families, which focuses on the social and educative transformation through dialogic learning; it takes for granted that people that form these communities communicate with no presence whatsoever of power among others. Although it is conceived within the Costa Rican educational system, the conclusions are transferable to other social contexts, in which approaching families is necessary in order to work in a proper way between the communication that they have at home and at school aiming to incorporate the family nucleus to the educational processes.

Palavras-chave : learning communities; social disadvantage; vulnerability; dialogic learning; family training; Costa Rica.
