Book Title

Democratic Dilemmas of Teaching Service Learning: Curricular Strategies for Success

Editor(s)

C. Cress and D. Donahue

Description

In over twenty chapters of case studies, faculty scholars from disciplines as varied as computer science, engineering, English, history, and sociology take readers on their and their students’ intellectual journeys, sharing their messy, unpredictable and often inspiring accounts of democratic tensions and trials inherent in teaching service-learning. Using real incidents, they explore the democratic intersections of various political beliefs along with race/ethnicity, class, gender, ability, sexual orientation, and other conflicted issues that students and faculty experience in the classroom and community. They share their struggles of how to communicate and interact across the divide of viewpoints and experiences within an egalitarian and inclusive environment all the while managing interpersonal tensions.
