O knihe
This book on service-learning provides a current view of service-learning research in the
second language classroom and practical applications for the acquisition of both cultural
knowledge as well as the different language modalities. This book helps in
understanding how using service-learning in the language classroom can facilitate
language acquisition. The author addresses many of the challenges faced by teachers in
the second language classroom as they try to implement service-learning programs in
their curriculum. Based on the research as well as the experience of the author and other
practitioners in the field, suggestions are given in each chapter as to how to maximize
student learning and acquisition of specific aspects of a language as well as on the
formation of successful programs and service-learning experiences. These suggestions
are integrated into the individual chapters based on the focus of the unit.
This text shows how service-learning allows students real world application of the language they are learning in the
classroom. This text discusses how service-learning assists students in contextualizing their learning and seeing the reality
of their field of study and the applicability of their language classes to settings that they encounter in their own
communities. Finally, at all levels teachers, professors, and administrators are being asked to provide standards and
assessments to demonstrate achievement and excellence in their different fields. This text addresses how service-learning
aids students in meeting these proficiency standards and helps them achieve many of the goals set forth by national and
international foreign/second language learning organizations.
