STRONG COMMUNITY SERVICE LEARNING - ERIC SHEFFI...

This book has received the AESA (American Educational Studies Association) Critics Choice Award
2012. Community Service Learning (CSL) is  potentially  the most powerful and far-reaching
educational reform movement in recent memory. Yet  that potential has yet to be realized. One
major reason for CSL's limited success is found in its runaway conceptual confusion: in
becoming everything to everyone  CSL has lost its philosophical bearings and  not surprisingly
its practical value. This study attempts to restore CSL's philosophical bearings  arguing that
there are particular understandings of its components that imply particular kinds of
educational practices. In this philosophical clarification lies the hope that CSL can meet its
immense potential as a transformative school and community practice. This book is a must-have
for teachers  school administrators  educational scholars  and students who have an interest in
making schools a vital community resource.
