The Service Learning Movement

The Service Learning Movement is an educational approach that combines community service with classroom instruction, allowing students to apply what they learn in real-world settings. It aims to foster civic responsibility, develop practical skills, and deepen understanding of course content through meaningful volunteer work. Unlike traditional volunteering, service learning integrates reflection and academic goals, ensuring that students not only help their communities but also connect their experiences to their personal and educational growth. This movement encourages active citizenship and social awareness, making learning more relevant and impactful for students while benefiting society.
