Service Learning

Captions available

The idea

Service learning integrates community service with instruction and reflection; it builds motivation and transfer, but it must fit the subject, may meet student resistance, and fails when projects are designed without community input.

In practice

A statistics class analyzes a food bank's data at the food bank's own request.

Where people slip

Projects designed without the community risk treating people as charity cases.
