Abstract

[Extract] Service Learning • Allows students to recognise their own capacity to act as agents of social change (Butin, 2006) • Gives students an opportunity to exercise their agency (Petray & Halbert in review) • Nurtures "citizen-scholars" who can link individual outcomes with structural forces (Mobley 2007) • Link between theory & practice • Situates students as global citizens who act within local communities • Encourages critical reflection (McKinney, Howery et al 2004; Rajaram 2007; Dean 2007; Lewis 2004)
