Developing Student Understanding of HIV/AIDS through Community Service-Learning: A Case Study Analysis
Jones, Susan R.; Abes, Elisa S.
Journal of College Student Development, v44 n4 p470-488 Jul-Aug 2003
This constructivist case study investigated student understanding about HIV/AIDS in the context of a service-learning partnership between a university class and local AIDS service organization. Analysis of data garnered from four organization staff, three teaching staff, and eight undergraduates suggests that interaction with clients and staff caused students to examine how stereotypes shaped their attitudes about people with HIV/AIDS and to rethink their behavioral choices.
