OVERVIEW:
A community is a social unit (a group of living things) with commonality such as place, norms, religion, values, customs, or identity. Communities may share a sense of place situated in
a given geographical area (e.g. a country, village, town, or neighborhood) or in virtual space through communication platforms.

Student’s Experiential Learning: (Note: Use the Flexible Learning Activity Identified for the topic/lesson relative to the General Enabling Teaching Strategy)
This section is intended for the presentation guide of the lesson proper. It must highlight the chunking of the topic into essential concepts through the use of formative questions.
CHUNK 1: What is community

A community is a group of people who share something in common. You can define a community by the shared attributes of the people in it and/or by the strength of the connections among them. You
need a bunch of people who are alike in some way, who feel some sense of belonging or interpersonal connection.
A community is a social unit (a group of living things) with commonality such as norms, religion, values, customs, or identity. Communities may share a sense of place situated in a given geographical area
(e.g. a country, village, town, or neighborhood) or in virtual space through communication platforms. Durable relations that extend beyond immediate genealogical ties also define a sense of community,
important to their identity, practice, and roles in social institutions such as family, home, work, government, society, or humanity at large. Although communities are usually small relative to personal
social ties, "community" may also refer to large group affiliations such as national communities, international communities, and virtual communities.
The English-language word "community" derives from the Old French comuneté (currently "Communauté"), which comes from the Latin communitas "community", "public spirit" (from Latin communis,
"common"). Human communities may share intent, belief, resources, preferences, needs, and risks in common, affecting the identity of the participants and their degree of cohesiveness. According to
David M. Chavis & Kien Lee, “Community” is so easy to say. The word itself connects us with each other. It describes an experience so common that we never really take time to explain it. It seems so
simple, so natural, and so human. In the social sector, we often add it to the names of social innovations as a symbol of good intentions (for example, community mental health, community policing,
community-based philanthropy, community economic development).
However, the meaning of community is complex. Insufficient understanding of what a community is and its role in the lives of people in diverse societies has led to the downfall of many well-intended
“community” efforts.

CHUNK 2: What are the types of community

Types of Community
A formal group is formed when people come together to accomplish specific goals an objective.
An informal group is formed when two or more people come together to accomplish a specific task which is mainly socially geared.
An urban area is the region surrounding a city. An area with high density of population.
A rural area is an open swath of land that has few homes or other buildings, and not very many people.
A rural area’s population density is very low.
A global community are the people or nations of the world, considered as being closely connected by modern telecommunications and as being economically, socially, and politically interdependent.
Sectoral means relating to the various economic sectors of a society or to a particular economic sector.
A social space is physical or virtual space such as a social center, online social media, or other gathering place where people gather and interact.

CHUNK 3: What are the common features of community

There are, broadly speaking, five common features of communities. You can classify every type of community by the purpose that brings them together.
1. Interest. Communities of people who share the same interest or passion.
2. Action. Communities of people trying to bring about change.
3. Place. Communities of people brought together by geographic boundaries.
4. Practice. Communities of people in the same profession or undertake the same activities.
5. Circumstance. Communities of people brought together by external events/situations

About 90% of community projects, especially branded communities, try to develop a community of interest. But a community of interest competes with our mental leisure time. Communities of interest
are the hardest type of community to develop.

1.) Define Community in your own words.
2.) Give three (3) reasons why do we need to study community.
