Learning Hubs for Primary Schools
What are Learning Hubs?
“A learning community is an intentionally developed community that exists to promote and maximise the individual and shared learning of its members. There is ongoing interaction, interplay, and collaboration among the community's members as they strive for specified common learning goals.”
Oscar, T.L, Denise M.H., Kevin P.S, Alisho S. & Andria S. (2013). Powerful Learning Communities A Guide to Developing Student, Faculty, and Professional Learning Communities to Improve Student Success and Organizational Effectiveness. New York. Routledge.
