La escuela y su comunidad: lecciones desde la ruralidad (Coursera)

Offered by Universidad Austral,

La comunidad de una escuela es mucho más que sus docentes, alumnos y padres; abarca al contexto en el que está inserta y a los actores que la rodean. Una escuela abierta a la comunidad se enriquece y, a la vez, enriquece a quienes la rodean. Las escuelas de contextos rurales tienen un gran camino recorrido en la relación con la comunidad y muchos aprendizajes valiosos para compartir con escuelas de todas las modalidades.
