An exciting development in higher education in the
increasingly widespread adoption of service learning as an
effective teaching and learning methodolgy. Higher
education institutions of all kinds are incorporating
service into their academic programs, focusing on the
aspects of the learning experience that they determine to be
most appropriate for their students. This video takes you
to five different kinds of these higher education
institutions - a land-grant university (Clemson University),
a state university (Eastern Michigan University), a
community college (Brevard Community College), a private
liberal arts college (Bates
College), and a historically black college (Benedict
College). Each perceives service learning as a significant
contributor to the overall educational experience they
provide for their students, yet each see this from its
unique perspective.
