This book is a reference to administrators and educators at institutions of higher learning who are thinking about taking serious steps to link their educational mission to helping their surrounding communities. Various best practices across the disciplines in higher education about integrating community engagement in traditional coursework are presented.
This book provides a multi-disciplinary and multi-method approach to incorporating the effects of community engagement (service learning) in the curriculum. Multiple departments from Art to Statistics, as well as various types of classes (undergraduate, graduate, online, face-to-face) are represented here.
If you are not sure how to integrate community engagement in classes at your university, this book is for you.
