Service-learning is a community-based educational approach to improve a student’s academic, personal, leadership, civic, and professional development through civic engagement. Unlike other traditional approaches to education, service-learning students can use their classroom-based knowledge and skills in a real-life context in collaboration with community organisations and residents.This volume explores the theory, research, and practices of how service-learning is understood, implemented, and evaluated in different contexts.

Key themes include:• Theory of service-learning• Concept of service-learning• Challenges to service-learning • Applications of service-learning• Service-learning as professional development• Service-learning as communicationAccessibly written, this book would be of interest to faculty, students, community organisations, and researchers working in the areas of education, pedagogy, sociology, and social work.
