Research on Service Learning: Conceptual Frameworks and Assessments: Volume 2B: Communities, Institutions, and Partnerships de Patti H. Clayton

Research on Service Learning: Conceptual Frameworks and Assessments: Volume 2B: Communities, Institutions, and Partnerships

Editat de Patti H. Clayton, Robert G. Bringle, Julie A. Hatcher
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 oct 2012

În analiza volumului Research on Service Learning, observăm o trecere riguroasă de la pedagogia individuală la impactul sistemic. Această componentă a seriei pune accentul pe instrumentele de evaluare și cadrele conceptuale necesare pentru a măsura succesul colaborării dintre universități și sectorul nonprofit. Ne-a atras atenția modul în care autorii tratează „departamentele angajate” nu doar ca unități administrative, ci ca nuclee de inovare socială, oferind studii de caz care pot fi replicate în diverse contexte academice.

Structura volumului este organizată strategic pentru a ghida cititorul de la orientarea generală asupra cercetării de înaltă calitate către segmente specifice: dezvoltarea comunitară, rolul instituțiilor și, în final, dinamica parteneriatelor. Această progresie indică o acoperire exhaustivă a ecosistemului de service-learning, depășind simpla interacțiune la clasă. Comparabil cu Research on Student Civic Outcomes in Service Learning în ceea ce privește rigoarea metodologică, acest volum este actualizat pentru a răspunde nevoilor de instituționalizare și sustenabilitate a programelor, teme care au devenit centrale în politicile educaționale contemporane.

Apreciem în mod deosebit includerea recomandărilor pentru cercetări viitoare la finalul fiecărui capitol, transformând textul dintr-o simplă revizuire a literaturii într-un instrument de lucru activ. Față de alte lucrări precum Service Learning de Dr Su-I Hou, care explorează barierele generale de adopție, volumul de față, editat de Patti H. Clayton și echipa sa, oferă o profunzime analitică superioară în ceea ce privește măsurarea calității parteneriatelor inter-organizaționale.

Descriere scurtă

The purpose of this set is to improve service learning research and practice through strengthening its theoretical base. Contributing authors include both well-known and emerging service learning and community engagement scholars, as well as scholars from other fields. The authors bring theoretical perspectives from a wide variety of disciplines to bear as they critically review past research, describe assessment methods and instruments, develop future research agendas, and consider implications of theory-based research for enhanced practice. This set constitutes a rich resource that suggests new approaches to conceptualizing, understanding, implementing, assessing, and studying service learning. Each chapter offers recommendations for future research.Research on Service Learning: Conceptual Frameworks and Assessment will be of interest to both new and veteran service learning instructors seeking to enhance their practice by integrating what has been learned in terms of teaching, assessment, and research. Staff and faculty who are responsible for promoting and supporting service learning at higher education institutions, evaluating community service programs, and working with faculty to develop research on service learning, will also find this volume helpful. For scholars and graduate students reviewing and conducting research related to service learning, this book is a comprehensive resource, and a knowledge base about the processes and outcomes of innovative pedagogies, such as service learning, that will enable them to locate their own work in an expanding and deepening arena of inquiry.Both volumes open with chapters focused on defining the criteria for quality research. Volume 2A, then begins with research related to students, comprising chapters that focus on cognitive processes, academic learning, civic learning, personal development, and intercultural competence. The concluding faculty section presents chapters on faculty development, faculty motivation, and faculty learning. Volume 2B addresses community development, and the role of nonprofit organizations in service learning. It then focusses on institutions, examining the institutionalization of service learning, engaged departments, and institutional leadership. The final section on partnerships in service learning includes chapters on conceptualizing and measuring the quality of partnerships, inter-organizational partnerships, and student partnerships.Both volumes are also available separately.
