“This study compared more than 1,000 high school students who participated in service-learning programs with those who did not participate in schools matched for similar demographics and student achievement profiles. The intention was to estimate the effects of service-learning compared to more traditional ways of teaching similar subject areas. The outcomes measured ranged from civic knowledge, behaviors, and dispositions to school engagement factors, such as attachment to school and enjoyment of coursework, that generally predict academic success. Students came from sites in the southeast, north central, and western parts of the United States. More than half of the students in the sample were Latino/Hispanic.”

I’m not from the United States but I am looking for these tendencies which provide the changes in the traditional high school. Thank you very much for this experience.
I think that now it is good time for changes. It is the time to forget about the traditional ways of teaching and to turn to the new technology. Great experience.
To my mind it’s wonderful that there are new studies and researches on this subject. I’m a teacher myself that’s why I understand the enormous role of such programs. Please, continue your work.
That’s an interesting research.

Student always need some improvement subjectwise so i think your research is very helpful in this context.
I enjoyed reading about the impact of participation in service learning. In the school district that I work in, we must complete a service learning project to become tenured.
Is testing only 1,000 students statistically significant enough to derive measurements with certain accuracy? Seems like it wouldn’t be.
Like Bradley I am also not from the US. There are a lot to learn from service learning programs as mentioned in the paper and that is something I hope will be picked up by the schools in my country.
Keep up the good work!

Concern about the health of civic life in the United States has generated academic debate, journalist commentaries, several study commissions, and publications by the score. Is civil society in decline, or is it reinventing itself?

I have downloaded the paper. I am interested in this topic, because I am a teacher at a school. Thanks.
Individuals have different forms of learning preferences and styles. To consider a more vocational approach such as learning Language, English, Maths, Science, Politics, Religion and more core subjects such as art, photography, through community engagement and project involvements is a fantastic approach to teaching outside of the normal classroom. I have observed some fantastic achievements by under privileged and the social elite by offering education that is based on engagement and self fulfilling. Whilst we often target the disadvantaged it is also the elite who are required to learn humility, and experience a broader social setting to appreciate their fortunate positioning and general use of power that accompanies wealth.

I did read this blog and it was very interesting. I liked the second part the most.
I agree with the above post. It’s a known facts that some are more academic than others, yet does not mean there less capable. Some of the greatest people alive were academic, my dad left school at 14 and was earning £70k a year as an electrical engineer. I believe that the schooling system is farse, it doesnt teach the career paths, they tell you that you must goto UNI and obtain a degree. I know a handful of people who have spent 4 years a UNI and still haven’t found a job after a year and are actually claiming benefits. I seriously believe that the schooling system needs looking at and i think there needs to be more than the known. great article though
The activity has not shown any significant progress. I would have stopped it here if I were you.
Service-learning programs & traditional way of teachings are completely different,so their impact on students will also be different.
Once again you posted a very interesting and informative article. I always look in for your new post and i am hoping for one soon.
Good luck for the proposal. Guess the work will be necessary to conduct more adiditonal benefits from the participants.
Thank you. Hope this will mark a great beginning for the team. They are working hard to manage the infrastructures built completely.
I think that now it is good time for changes. It is the time to forget about the traditional ways of teaching and to turn to the new technology. Thank you for highlighting this, keep up your good work.

Kids learn from play and games as well as academic studies. It’s good to see someone is taking the trouble to study all aspects of these things.
The People’s Republic of China conducted censuses in 1953, 1964, and 1982. In 1987 the government announced that the fourth national census would take place in 1990 and that there would be one every ten years thereafter. The 1982 census, which reported a total population of 1,008,180,738, is generally accepted as significantly more reliable, accurate, and thorough than the previous two. Various international organizations eagerly assisted the Chinese in conducting the 1982 census, including the United Nations Fund for Population Activities, which donated US$15.6 million for the preparation and execution of the census.
Yes, I also think of the same thing. They can do a lot more when they have the resources ready.
It is the time to forget about the traditional ways of teaching and to turn to the new technology. Great experience.
Such learning programs will give good improvement in the development of students.
Let this continue.
