Special Section on Learning in Communities: Complete

Community learning is an area of investigation that goes to the heart of community informatics as we attend to questions of how knowledge is shaped and shared at the local level. This special section of the Journal of Community Informatics is based on a multidisciplinary workshop organized by John Carroll and held in August 2005 at Penn State’s School of Information Sciences and Technology. It contains an informal report of the workshop, as well as ‘mini papers’ contributed by some of the participants.
