Service Learning Research Projects: Empowerment in Students, Faculty, and Communities.
Mettetal, Gwynn; Bryant, De
College Teaching, v44 n1 p24-28 Win 1996
A model of service learning that can serve as a vehicle for teaching, research, and community service is suggested to college faculty. Two such projects are described: a project providing parent education to young families while researching effectiveness of temperament education, and an intergenerational program to determine whether community theater can enhance self-esteem and life satisfaction. Program design recommendations are made. (MSE)
