N2  - Forging an Educative Community tells the story of a public school classroom, where relations are fostered to promote democratic participation within intellectual engagement.  In forging an educative community, teacher and students develop relations of trust, sense-making, and compassionate imagination, which in turn engender a sense of belonging, all essential elements of an educative community. This book illustrates the challenges and barriers to forming such a community in classrooms, particularly the underside of a sense of belonging that carries with it a terror of being transformed – a terror that can subside only with a trust that belonging will not require us to give up who we are.
