Global Service-Learning on a Continuum: Shallow and Deep Service-Learning in Rwanda
Abstract
This book chapter explores student learning and growth after participating in the Science, Society, and Service-Learning in Rwanda study abroad program. The students participated in what the authors define as deep service-learning, one experience that took place over a few days, allowing for more meaningful engagement, and shallow service-learning, two separate experiences that each occurred over a few hours, allowing for less interaction. The authors used Likert-scale and open-ended post-trip questions to assess the students in three categories: 1) global competency and cultural awareness, 2) personal growth and development, and 3) communication and teamwork. The students rated the first category the highest. The authors also assess the effectiveness of the service-learning experiences by including the perspectives of the Rwandan community partners.
