Service-learning is a teaching method that connects learning in the classroom to active participation of service to the community.

服务学习是一种方法……

  • Under which students learn and develop through active participation in thoughtfully organized service experiences that meet actual community needs and that are coordinated in collaboration with the school and the community.
  • That is integrated into the student’s academic curriculum or provides structured time for a student to think, 说话, or write about what the student did during the actual service activity.
  • That provides students with opportunities to use newly acquired skills and knowledge in real life situations in their own communities.
