Resum:
This paper tries to analyse learning networks in the context of non-compulsory secondary education in the Spanish public schools, within their process of moving towards more innovative models based on progressively greater use of active learning methodologies as well as on greater and better use of ICTs. Our goal was to determine, using the SCCI (Rovai 2002), the degree of consolidation of the learning networks formed by students in the first year of non-compulsory secondary education at two quite different public high schools: one large school in an urban area (Institut Joaquín Bau in Tortosa, Tarragona, Spain) and one small school in a rural setting (Institut Els Ports in Morella, Castellón, Spain), and all for determining how important the kind of school and school environment can be when creating learning networks.
