This practical guide, authored by 21 contributors and edited by two experts in community service learning, describes specific service-learning projects that have enhanced student learning and the curriculum in schools across the United States. Authors include teachers, community members, coordinators--and even a high school student. The book discusses how service learning changes a school's culture so that it becomes a partner with the community. Foreword by U.S. Secretary of Education Richard Riley. From literature to social studies to vocational education courses, students make learning real as they participate in conflict resolution programs, peer tutoring, partnerships with children with disabilities, quilt making, AIDS education, oral histories of elder citizens, and other projects.
