In the first part of this article, What are Small Schools, Small Learning Communities and Learning Communities of Practice? published In the October issue of the CAEnet, I defined small schools and delineated the concept of small schools from small learning communities. I then proposed the term learning communities of practice for describing the larger autonomous settings for educational facilities that are learner-centered and support the needs of approximately 400 students. In this submission, Part n, I will describe the learning community of practice (LCP), assert that this understanding provides the groundwork for designing the LCP, and propose design patterns for developing a pattern language (Alexander, 1977) for the LCP.#Research #Articles #BestPractices #CommitteeonArchitectureforEducation
