Service Learning In Loyola College, Chennai : Loyola Extension Awareness Programme (Leap) : For First Year Pg Students, M. S. Joseph Antony Jacob

Asia-Pacific Regional Conference on Service-Learning 亞太地區服務研習會議

The subjects that the students study in the class room should be deeply reflected in the field. It should not be mere observation learning, but actually plunging into action through demonstration. For example, Students of the Chemistry Department rightly chooses to conduct the consumer awareness programme by demonstrating some adulterated food and its adverse impact on health. Students of commerce departments should study the business know-how, various marketing techniques and new innovation in business. Students of economics department should study the developmental schemes of the government and its impact on the rural Masses. Thus service learning in Loyola is of …

The Connection Between Service-Learning And Community-Based Research, Wing Yan, Winnie Ng

Asia-Pacific Regional Conference on Service-Learning 亞太地區服務研習會議

Service-Learning is a new pedagogy developed in Hong Kong, which deepens students' learning through service experiences and reflective activities. Direct Service-Learning projects and programs, where students have face-to-face interactions with service recipients, are the most common type of Service-Learning experience.

While in-direct Service-Learning projects and programs are often also carried out in academic settings in Asia, there is not much emphasis placed on students' conducting community-based research, or CBR.

Applying Critical Pedagogy In Service Learning Practice : A Path To Social Justice, Yu Yun Peng

Asia-Pacific Regional Conference on Service-Learning 亞太地區服務研習會議

With Service-Learning gaining more acceptance and greater momentum in Asia, practitioners raise new concerns around ethical issues in its goal and practice. Ethics has to do with choosing between alternatives that must be evaluated as right (ethical) or wrong (unethical). For example, since the primary concern of Service-Learning is students' learning, what about the host communities? How do we ensure that service-learning does not treat them as mere laboratory and their stories and lives as mere artifacts or objects for study? In terms of student learning, is it enough for students to be able to make a comparison between their …

Its emphasis on social change, and the effort on the seeking of mutual benefit for all parties in service learning experience speak to the weakness of traditional service learning path. By critically reflecting on and examining the concept and practice of service-learning projects, building authentic relationships between both serving and …

This paper discusses an action research as an approach to improving service-learning programs in a residential college (RC) of a university in Macau, China.

This …
