Abstract

This article describes strategies used to transform an international neuroscience initiative into an integrated service-learning component of a neural-related course. The structure of the project promoted reflective practices and experiential learning, which resulted in metacognitive development. Although the material reviewed is specific to the development of a neural-related project, it also addresses general service-learning issues that might be of interest to those from many different fields.
