Abstract

Competency-based education has received significant attention from education leaders, policy makers, and learning scholars in recent years. With courses to degree programs centered on this concept, the discourse has been fueled by renewed discussion on students’ ability to “master skills” in college. As strategies in teaching, learning, and higher education continue to evolve, we argue that service learning plays a critical role in this shift to competency-based education frameworks but that other important methods of teaching competencies are equally important. We conducted interviews with instructors and students in a wide array of academic disciplines, as well as organizational leaders in various nonprofit sectors. Sampling diversity helps capture the range of perspectives around service learning and competency development. This research has important implications for instructors and faculty seeking best practices in designing service-learning courses and for community partners engaging in service-learning relationships with educational institutions.

服务与高等教育:服务学习作用的多学科评估
近年来,胜任力教育受到了教育领导者、政策制定者和学习学者的广泛关注。随着学位课程以这一概念为中心,关于学生在大学里“掌握技能”的能力的重新讨论推动了这一讨论。随着教学、学习和高等教育策略的不断发展,我们认为服务学习在向以能力为基础的教育框架的转变中发挥着关键作用,但其他重要的教学能力方法也同样重要。我们采访了各个学科的教师和学生,以及各个非营利部门的组织领导人。抽样多样性有助于捕捉围绕服务学习和能力发展的视角范围。这项研究对寻求设计服务学习课程的最佳实践的教师和教师以及与教育机构建立服务学习关系的社区合作伙伴具有重要意义。订阅JNEL
