This course introduces the social science concept of community. The focus will be on definitions of community, community basics and the different types of communities that exist in society. Students will explore the development of community as defined by place and interest, structure and function. Finally, students will begin developing a theory to practice mentality by gathering and analyzing information about real communities that represent different types of community (i.e. place, practice and interest).
