Outcomes from cross-cultural service-learning.
Abstract
This study examines student outcomes in an undergraduate cross-cultural service-learning course utilizing Spanish-speaking community agencies in education, community activism, and health. Participant responses are categorized according to the effect on academic learning and career influence, personal growth, cultural perspective, and civic responsibility.
