Each community is unique. Each community has its own dynamics. Do you know your own community? What makes it unique? How would you identify with your community?
As a member of the community you are aware that your own community has its own structure and way things work. But for those who are interested or would like to work in a community they need to have a clear grasp/perception of the community before any activity. They must learn to interact, appreciate, and accept the community and its dynamics. One must learn the environment, the physical, social, economic, cultural and political environment.
All the data you gather from the community serves as a background for your study. It can be your initial assessment. An understanding of how the community perceives the benefits and costs of participating will facilitate decision making and consensus building and will translate into improved program planning, design, policy development, organization, and advocacy. Knowing the community can also understand what can serve as assets and weaknesses of the community. It can also help you gauge the diversity of the community and the networks established within and outside the community. Also knowing how the community interact among them can help you understand how the community will respond to problems and situations.
Quoting Deng Xiao Peng “There are many ways to skin a cat.” The said quotation is also applicable in knowing a community. Melgarito and Mendoza (2016) stated that one of the best way to understand the community is though immersing with the community. Immersing is more than exposure. It makes you understand what makes them vulnerable and strong. To know is imperative to assess what they are and what are capable of.

Module 6: PHILOSOPHY The human person in societyGAMALI Roper
1) Human beings are inherently social and can only grow and develop fully within the context of relationships and society.
2) Society refers to groups of interacting individuals who share a common culture. It is made up of various elements including government, family, schools, churches, and economic systems.
3) Within society, individuals occupy various social statuses and play different roles, and are socialized by different agents like family, schools, peers and media.
Social sciences study human societies and relationships, while applied social sciences use theories and concepts from social sciences to address real-world problems. During the COVID-19 pandemic, applied social science practitioners like counselors, social workers, and communicators addressed rising mental health issues through interventions like webinars and social media posts. The document discusses the relationship between social sciences and applied social sciences and their impact on society.
Social mapping uses ethnography, social network analysis, and focus group discussions to understand community behaviors, relationships, and problems. Ethnography involves observing daily life to understand traditions. Social network analysis maps relationships between stakeholders to identify influential individuals and power structures. Focus group discussions bring together influential community members to discuss and get historical perspectives on problems and how the community solves them. Together these methods provide insights into social conditions, linkages, and issues within a community.
This document discusses community structure, dynamics, and development. It describes the internal structure of communities and how they are made up of various populations within a space. Community development is defined as a process where community members work together to solve common problems. The document also outlines five key functions of communities: production/distribution/consumption to provide livelihoods; socialization to instill norms/values; social control to enforce values; social participation for companionship; and mutual support to help each other.
The document discusses different perspectives for defining community:
1. The systems perspective views a community as similar to a living organism with different parts representing specialized functions that work together to meet community needs.
2. The social perspective defines a community by the social and political networks that link individuals and organizations, understanding which is important for engagement efforts.
3. The virtual perspective recognizes that some communities exist online through computer-mediated communication and social media, forming virtual communities.
4. The individual perspective acknowledges that people may identify with multiple communities and that this sense of identity can change over time. Practitioners must understand how individuals view themselves and their connections.
The document discusses different perspectives for defining community:
1. The systems perspective views a community as comprising different parts that represent specialized functions, similar to a living organism. Collaboration is important for the community to function well.
2. The social perspective defines a community by the social and political networks that link individuals and organizations. Understanding these networks is critical for engagement efforts.
3. The virtual perspective recognizes that individuals increasingly rely on computer-mediated communication and considers online groups that interact organized as "virtual communities." These are potential partners for health promotion.
This document discusses the importance of understanding community dynamics and action in relation to applied social sciences. It explains that to properly engage with a community, one must first seek to understand its context, realities, strengths, challenges, rules, norms, and attitudes by immersing oneself in the community. Gaining this understanding provides benefits like establishing benchmark data, informing project planning and design, facilitating partnership building, and making project implementation less complicated. The dynamics of a community are shaped by its nature, structure, and interactions both internal and external.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17Celine George
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

TITLE/ INTRODUCTION
Take time and look at the photo above. Is the common façade familiar to you?
Have you ever wandered around your own community? Have you ever thought deeply
and realized what is really happening?
The study of community entails us to understand our very own community life.
It gives us the idea on how to perceive reality by becoming involve in the day to day
process which is socialization. In the interaction process, people grasp the
challenges of the contemporary community life.
Using the imaginative yet rational ideals of social sciences, we sought to
investigate how socialization may impact the dynamics within the community –
whether it has improved or worsened the present condition. In this module, we are
geared towards explaining the importance of studying community dynamics and

LEARNING ACTIVITIES
Lesson 1: The Community We Live In!
What is Community and Why is there a Need in Studying this?
Individuals having significant interaction within a specified area becomes one
of the contributory factors in forming community. The word community was derived
from the Latin word communis which means “common” or “shared”. 1
It may share a certain sense of place whether it is geographical area or through
a virtual space. Geographical community is a community where members share
the same geographical vicinity such as a village, province or neighborhood. Non-
geographical community is a community formed based on needs, ideas, interests,
identity, practices, and roles in social institutions such as at home, all work, in
government, society, or the community at large.2
Communication and relationships are imperative in building community. As
people communicate and interact, relationships foster. It develops pattern by which
adopted in the environment.
Communities may also be in two levels: Micro-level community, a group is
formed based on personal ties. This may include groups formed for pursuing common
interests or goals like forming a small organization to hold a fund-raising activity such
as concerts. At macro-level, large group affiliation is formed such as national
communities, international communities, and virtual communities. Companies and
corporations may develop various programs that would include different members
across the country. They will work on meeting certain objectives and expand on the
aspect of community involvement.3

Mores, values, and identity is a commonality that form culture. Hence, the
interest of social sciences focused in the study of communities. The following are the
importance of studying community:
1. It motivates people to work together – people feel a sense of community and
recognize the benefits of their involvement. 4
(ec.europa.eu)
2. It encourages social, religious, or traditional obligations for mutual help.5
(ec.europa.eu)
3. People see a genuine opportunity to better their own lives and for the community.6
(ec.europa.eu)
4. It understands policies promoting community participation that values social
capital.7
(dspace.nwu.ac.za)
5. Community participation could be understood as the direct involvement of citizenry
in the affairs of planning, governance, and overall development programs at local or
grassroot levels. 8
(dspace.nwu.ac.za)
Understanding community life makes us value the things we have on a daily
basis, social encounter constructs reality and affects some changes within – this is
Community Dynamics.
The changes in the community are brought about by social, cultural and
environmental experiences whether it is positive or negative development that
impacts within the community. People adopt the changes and it has shaped their way
of life.
Have you noticed some recent changes in your community?

Lesson 2: Importance of Community Action!
Amid the corona virus scare in the whole country, there have been
various organizations who have continuously given their efforts to at least lessen the
impact in education. One of which is ERDA Foundation Inc., a non-governmental and
non-profit organization which has been in service for not less than 45 years dedicated
to helping the poor but deserving Filipino children have access to education. Read and
study the short text below.
#ErdaFrontliners #ERDAHeroes
Here are the ERDA Parent Leaders who are actively
facilitating the Covid Pulse Ph project of Zero Extreme Poverty (ZEP) 2030 and
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) through Code-NGO.
Before this project, they and their Council of Leaders have already been important
partners of the ERDA Social Workers in the Education, Family and Community
Support Programs of the Foundation. During this very challenging global health
situation, we need to sustain their worthwhile activities and livelihood.

What is Community Action?
Community Action is any activity that aims to increase the understanding,
engagement and empowerment of communities for the intention of giving services to
people. There are 3-key points in grasping the definition more meaningful:
Understanding – raise an awareness about certain communal issues that needs
to be addressed. People develop the feeling of involvement once they truly
comprehend the situation within. They come together to support advocacies
that will overcome community needs and difficulties.
https://www.kindpng.com/imgv/iiimhTR_stop-bullying-cliparts-people-holding-hands-clipart-
Engagement – Once issues are assessed properly and people in the
community understand the needs, they work collaboratively to act on it. The
main goal of engaging in the community is to improve the partnership and
www.shsph.blogspot.com

coalitions among the community. It is important that engagement occurs so that
members will be able to involve meaningfully in the activities that they have
created.
https://ya-webdesign.com/explore/service-clipart-community-involvement/
Empowerment – enable the people to independently decide, plan-out and take
action to control the situation they have in the community. This means, initiative
and decisions come from internal group organized for the benefit of everyone.
It is also necessary that the community can provide significant networks and
linkages that will genuinely serve the advocacies that they have built.
Hence, the study of community action is imperative in the field of social
sciences and other related disciplines as it lays on the foundation that individuals and
families – as basic unit, are embedded in different social structures that shape the
behaviors in the system. Having knowledge in community action makes an individual
understand better by being aware in the environment, have meaningful engagement
and accept empowerment to create significant impact.

Awareness on community and community dynamics makes us realize the value
of individuals’ involvement in different communal undertakings. Social capital
strengthens the community link and create a diverse network. It entails us to
understand external resources that may be beneficial in the development process
aspired by the community leaders.
Research about non-governmental, non-profit organizations and write their
vision, mission, goals and objectives focused on community development and
community dynamics. Identify their plan of action in order to attain the VMGOs.
