  abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not Learning Team might be a useful tool of community development for increasing the number of leaders and expanding their leadership abilities, thus, establishing another system for community learning. Participants in the study include eight members of a Learning Team in an inner city in a major East Coast city in the U.S. They were volunteer merging leaders. They niet informally with facilitators for six months to learn about participatory action research, design, and carry out research and plan new community programs m response to their learnings. In thus cooperative qualitative study, Kenneth Henry (m a chssertation called Conununity Development and Participatory Action Research: A Learning Team) and I collected data from interviews, participant observations, and documents. The finchngs of this study are: 1.Intemewing was especially important both to undemwding the g Team members and to charting the course of the Learning Team. 2. Before the study began, the Learning Team members were lughly skilled 3 .The definitions of community did not change significantly initial and exit interviews. 4.Individual definitions of community development changed significantly over the course of the Learning Team. 5.The meetings were important to Learning Team members, yet they did not recall many specifics about them. 6.The process of collemng and organizing the information we collected was a vital part of the Learning Team. 7.Establishing positive relationships among Learning Team members and facilitators was important to Learning Team members. 8. Some concepts of participatory action research were incorporated into Learning Team members' images of community research and community development Working on two dissertations, collaboratively, has been a uruquely rewarding experience and such experiments should be promoted.
