Connecting Service Learning
with the
Best Practices in Education
|
Introduction :
As educators we are always looking to improve our skills, and
expand the set of tools that we bring to the classroom. We continuously
explore new models and methodologies in the hope of reaching all
students. Service Learning is recognized as an important tool in
reaching a diverse student population. In this section we would
like to explore the use of Service Learning as a powerful tool in
implementing a wide range of accepted Best Practices in the classroom.
It is important to note that these educational models are complex.
We can only give them a cursory overview in our limited space. Teaching
through these models requires a great deal of training. Links have
been provided to additional materials on each model. Each section
has a PowerPoint presentation which highlights the connection between
Service Learning and the specific model.
