This bulletin presents the key elements of service learning and moves into a discussion of the benefits to be gained from incorporating service learning into a school-to-work system. It discusses the following key elements that are central to service learning programs and that can be expanded when incorporating a service learning component into a school-to-work component: integrated curriculum, time for reflection, building community partnerships, and diverse activities. The bulletin then addresses these practitioner-identified benefits to incorporating a service learning component into a school-to-work system: active learning, working with diverse populations, younger participants, school and community support, and improved citizenship and self-esteem. One example of effective practice is described: the West Philadelphia Improvement Corps, which operates a multifaceted, community-oriented school-to-work and service learning initiative in the John P. Turner Middle School with activities during and after the school day. The bulletin concludes with a listing of 12 organizations that can provide further information on connecting service learning to school-to-work. Brief summaries describe the organizations' focus and activities. (YLB)
