Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
This substantially expanded new edition of this widelyused and acclaimed text maintains the objectives and tenets of the first. It is designed to help students understand and reflect on their community service experiences both as individuals and as citizens of communities in need of their compassionate expertise. It is designed to assist faculty in facilitating student development of compassionate expertise through the context of service in applying disciplinary knowledge to community issues and challenges. In sum, the book is about how to make academic sense of civic service in preparing for roles as future citizen leaders.Each chapter has been developed to be read and reviewed, in sequence, over the term of a servicelearning course. Students in a semester course might read just one chapter each week, while those in a quarterterm course might need to read one to two chapters per week. The chapters are intentionally short, averaging 8 to 14 pages, so they do not interfere with other course content reading.This edition presents four new chapters on Mentoring, Leadership, Becoming a Change Agent, and ShortTerm Immersive and Global ServiceLearning experiences. The authors have also revised the original chapters to more fully address issues of social justice, privilege/power, diversity, intercultural communication, and technology; have added more disciplinary examples; incorporated additional academic content for understanding servicelearning issues (e.g., attribution theory); and cover issues related to students with disabilities, and international students.This text is a studentfriendly, selfdirected guide to servicelearning that: Develops the skills needed to succeed Clearly links servicelearning to the learning goals of the course Combines selfstudy and peerstudy workbook formats with activities that can be incorporated in class, to give teachers maximum flexibility in structuring their servicelearning courses Promotes independent and collaborative learning Equally suitable for courses of a few weeks or a few months duration Shows students how to assess progress and communicate endresults Written for students participating in service learning as a class, but also suitable for students working individually on a project.Instructor's ManualThis Instructor Manual discusses the following six key areas for aligning your course with use of Learning through Serving, whether you teach a seniorlevel high school class, freshman studies course, or a college capstone class:1.
