Citizenship and service learning.
Abstract
Research on service learning often fails to distinguish between service learning projects that increase students' social connections to their communities and service learning projects that deepen students' political connections to their communities. This paper (1) explores the social and political components of citizenship (2) discusses the results of two service learning projects and (3) argues for the importance of designing service learning projects that cultivate both the social and political components of citizenship.
