Academic
Service Learning (ASL) is a method of teaching, learning and reflecting
that combines academic classroom curriculum with meaningful service,
frequently youth service, throughout the community...
As a teaching
methodology, it falls under the category of experiential education.
More specifically, it integrates meaningful community service with
instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach
civic responsibility, encourage lifelong civic engagement, and
strengthen communities for the common good.
ServiceBook
facilitates the service learning process by providing an internet
community for academic service learning where students, faculty and
their community partners share project experiences, proposals for new
projects, course syllabi, school-wide academic service learning
programs and profiles of themselves as ASL advocates and practitioners.
ServiceBook also contains the first online ASL encyclopedia, composed of articles written by students and faculty.
