The Complete Guide to Service Learning: Proven, Practical Ways to Engage Students in Civic Responsibility, Academic Curriculum, & Social Action (Free Spirit Professional®) Second Edition, Revised, Book with Digital Content

I purchased this book for participation in a book club. The book provides an introduction to service-learning and an explanation of the book and how to utilize the chapters. Each chapter focuses on a specific project with activities, project ideas, a curricular map, and books to read for K-12 students. Service-learning connects academic skills to transition skills to community experiences. Great resource!

This book has been so helpful to give me a kick start in integrating service learning in my high school classroom. The ideas are laid out clearly and there are so many helpful examples.

This is a good foundational resource. It is a bit limited in theoretical context and depth, however has some great ideas for getting started. There are also some very nice templates for facilitating planning, thoughtful writing/processing, and reflecting for students which is an essential component of service learning.

The book is very helpful with lots of descriptions, examples, and so forth. The templates are excellent. I have recommended this book to a number of people.

I thought it would be more beneficial. I guess the e-resources will make up for it.

It was very comprehensive; covered many situations and different groups of people; have sent a copy with visitors from Moldova who are working to develop leadership in their citizens - especially young people..

The book is great but I am missing the cd rom that was suppose to come with it. Most of the activities that I want are included on this CD. If I go to the website it does not have everything I need.

I needed this book for my dissertation proposal quickly. I got it fast. I love the book, and I got a CD with lesson plans!
