How Do We Ensure that Students Learn from Service-Learning?

Speaker: 何素楠教授 (晨興書院)

Abstract

自面對多元化的學生社群,晨興書院和伍宜孫書院在發展和維持高質素的服務學習活動時,都同樣面對獨特的挑戰。在是次通識午餐聚會,講者將先為我們介紹何謂服務學習,再透過回應下列問題,闡述他們克服挑戰的經驗,包括: 如何盡早將學生的服務經驗,連繫到書院生活? 學生能夠從服務學習裡面學會甚麼?怎樣學?我們應當在服務學習裡面加入其他的教學元素嗎? 如何確保同學在服務他人的同時,亦能反省服務學習的理念? 在中文大學規劃服務學習活動和課程時,需要有甚麼考慮和準備?
