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 UR - https://udemproxy.elogim.com/auth-meta/login.php?url=http://link.springer.com/openurl?genre=book&isbn=978-1-4039-6877-7 ER -
