Book Overview
Ensuring that all students achieve their full academic potential is no small feat. Service learning - an experiential approach to education that involves students in meaningful, real-world activities - can advance social, emotional, and academic curricula goals while simultaneously benefiting the students and their communities. This book describes how service learning, which is an intervention that can be remedial or preventive and individual or systemic, can enable school psychologists, counseling and educational professionals to expand their roles from working with special populations to serving students within the academic mainstream. Numerous case studies highlight change processes in schools and communities. The book also includes sample practice materials and forms for organizing and assessing service learning activities. A Practical Guide to Service Learning will be useful to school psychologists, counselors, allied educational and mental health practitioners, and anyone who works with children in schools.
