Description
This presentation focuses on the history, theoretical foundations, and broad practice of Service-Learning in two different contexts; the United States and South Africa. It examines Service-Learning pedagogy’s design and practice - curricular, co-curricular, or non-formal – utilized in both countries noting the influence of evolving theories of student development - intellectual, moral, civic - in order to engage conference participants in reflecting on appropriate application and possible futures in Hong Kong and elsewhere.
