3. "The growth of any craft depends on shared
practice and honest dialogue among the
people who do it. We grow by private trial
and error, to be sure -- but our willingness to
try, and fail, as individuals is severely limited
when we are not supported by a community
that encourages such risks."
-- The Courage to Teach; Palmer, 1998, p. 144
4. "Understandably there is considerable
debate over the definition of learning
communities...I shall simply define them
as groups of people engaged in
intellectual interaction for the purpose of
learning."
-- Cross, "Why Learning Communities? Why Now?" About Campus,
1998, p. 4
