Opportunities for service learning are growing and their value is recognized by students, faculty and community participants.
Students get real world experience and the community gets a to help the school! Sounds like with Service Learning, everyone wins!
Service learning is an essential part to any program preparing students for community work.
Though service learning comes with many challenges, creating authentic experiences like this for students is very much worth the effort. I appreciated this part of the lesson as it addressed the ability for service learning opportunities to impact students' self-confidence.
Too bad my school wants to take away service learning from my students.
Service learning shows what may be involved in that career. Being told stories from people has nothing on going thru it themselves.
