Popis: In today's digital age, technological advancements permeate every sector, especially higher education. However, higher education must go beyond merely integrating AI into the curriculum. Additionally, it needs to prioritize educating students about societal issues. Integrating service learning into higher education curriculums, however, is a significant challenge facing schools today. There is a need for comprehensive research on its effectiveness and guidance on institutionalizing it effectively. This hampers its potential to foster civic engagement and social responsibility among students. With clear strategies and best practices, institutions can implement service learning programs that benefit all stakeholders. Enhancing Curricula with Service Learning Models provides a comprehensive blend of theoretical frameworks, practical experimentation, and real-world examples to guide educators, administrators, and policymakers in fostering profound student engagement. It emphasizes the role of emerging educational paradigms, like service-learning, in instilling a sense of civic duty and purpose in students. By enriching the educational dialogue with an emphasis on the pivotal role of student engagement in creating transformative and purposeful learning experiences, this book empowers educators and institutions to create impactful and sustainable programs. To ensure that educators and stakeholders are equipped with the knowledge and tools necessary to cultivate environments that encourage active student participation, Enhancing Curricula with Service Learning Models provides practical guidance on building effective tri-party relationships between community partners, academia, and students. By offering a meta-analysis of service learning practices, this book is a valuable resource for institutions looking to enhance their academic quality and community engagement.
