Abstract

This chapter focuses on showcasing two case studies of multidisciplinary, international service-learning courses offered on the state college level. The authors will focus on best practices of multidisciplinary, international service-learning such as understanding student demographics in order to recruit and prepare students for study abroad experiences. Preparation of student expectation, cultural mentors, and identifying service-learning partners will be covered. The chapter will also offer insights into creative research projects also known as “UnEssays” as a pedagogical tool.
