Description

Service learning experiences can be deeply meaningful for both students and teachers, but when they’re not thoughtfully planned, they can also lead to unintended consequences.


In this episode, we dive into the behind-the-scenes of those big “Week Without Walls” trips and other school-led service projects. Together, we reflect on how schools can design service learning programs that foster meaningful connections, responsible action, and real learning for everyone involved.


Check out the Complete Guide to Service Learning by our friend Cathy Berger Kaye for an A-Z guide to help you get started, review, or refine your service learning approaches. If you already have it, keep an eye out for the 3rd edition coming out soon!
