In this module we are reading about communities. Catherine Latterell provides us with common assumptions about community. Sarah Adams, Shari Caudron, and Mackensie Griffen each show us in their expository essays with examples and stories different kinds of communities. As we reread their discussions, we come to experience how each community may be somewhat different. These 3 authors are each showing us aspects of the idea of community and how these aspects work in daily life.
Topic:
Why is it important for people to live in communities and have communities to support them?
Give supporting examples from the readings posted in this module as well as examples from your own experience.
[You must provide both, not just examples from your own experience.]
