學校社群關係經營與社區本位學習之探討

The Preliminary Inquiry of Operating for School-Community Partnerships and Community-Based Learning

學校與家庭、社區之間的關係密不可分，唯有彼此建立良好的伙伴關係，才能減少學生的文化不利現象，使教育改革成效事半功倍。家長、社區人士、甚至其他組織都是與社區緊密相連的社群，研究顯示，家長積極參與學校事務的家庭，其子女在校表現也較為傑出，而學校與社區的合作關係也直接影響學校教育品質。因此，如何建立學校與社區中各社群之間的伙伴關係，將是未來重建學校發展的重要課題。

本文以社區為範疇，先探討學校社群關係的經營概念，其次探究學校社群關係的發展模式與經營策略，最後以社區本位學習的推動為例，善盡學校社群關係中的公民責任，提出可供學校參考的建議與展望。
