Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences, v101 n3 p39-46 2009
This study examines characteristics of family and consumer sciences (FCS) collegiate faculty who do and do not incorporate service-learning in their teaching and determines their dominant mode of teaching practice. Survey results from 368 faculty members in institutions of higher education across the United States demonstrate that FCS faculty practice a Reflective-Ethical mode of teaching, irrespective of whether they are service-learning or non service-learning faculty. (Contains 3 tables.)
