Service-Learning
Service-learning is an educational approach that integrates meaningful community service with academic instruction, aiming to enrich learning experiences, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen communities. Rooted in John Dewey's work, service-learning emphasizes learning through action and reflection, allowing students to apply classroom knowledge to real-world challenges. One of the main tenets of service learning is the active participation of all students, ensuring that each individual has the opportunity to find their own way of participating in the project, allowing them to improve their skills and create community connections.
