Is service-learning appropriate in every discipline?
While service-learning is not right for every course, it’s surprising how many disciplines are represented in the growing list of service-learning success stories. The American Association of Higher Education is publishing a series of monographs on service-learning in the disciplines, with volumes about Accounting, Biology, Communications, Composition, Engineering, Environmental Studies, History, Management, Medical Education, Nursing, Peace Studies, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, Spanish, and Teacher Education.
