Increasing Creativity in Economics: The Service Learning Project
Hervani, Aref; Helms, Marilyn M.
Journal of Education for Business, v79 n5 p267-274 May-Jun 2004
In this study, the authors analyze an effective classroom teaching style that relies on interactive learning and integrates classroom activities and efforts into communities. They introduce the service learning project as an effective teaching tool that can be used along with other effective teaching practices to enhance students' learning outcomes. The authors found that the success of the service learning project is affected by the degree of integration among the institution and the public and private community agencies. Through such integration, both the students and the community receive greater benefits from increased knowledge and joint activities. (Contains 1 table and 2 figures.)
