Service-learning in higher education settings offers a powerful alternative to traditional models of teaching and learning. Students are encouraged to develop links to local institutions, volunteer their time, and create a special bond between the university and the community in which they live. Service-learning has become a very popular alternative to standard courses in higher education and is gaining significant popularity. This book takes a serious look at the unintended consequences and alternative conceptualizations of this mode of learning and explores what it could offer us in the future.Community and collegeUnited StatesEducation, HigherCurriculaUnited StatesExperiential learningUnited StatesService learningUnited StatesStudent volunteers in social serviceUnited StatesElectronic books.Community and collegeEducation, HigherCurriculaExperiential learningService learningStudent volunteers in social service378/.015/0973Butin Dan W(Dan Wernaa)986261MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450850603321Service-learning in higher education2254173UNINA
