The Higher Educational Institution assesses the Community Partnership in Service-Learning: One Strategy for Institutionalizing Service-Learning

Abstract

Service-learning is a pedagogical methodology used by numerous higher educational institutions around the country.  This study offers substantive institutional-community partner survey question examples from Campus Compact member websites targeting institutional assessment of the community partner for ascertaining both the quality and effectiveness of service-learning on campus and for accreditation purposes.  There is a paucity of service-learning institutional assessment research, and this study attempts to alleviate that gap.
