This compact, accessible guide supports students in developing and applying the skills and knowledge needed to maximize any community-engaged learning experience. In this new edition, Donahue and Plaxton-Moore unpack the concept and practice of reciprocity, address student anxiety and well-being, and integrate more student and community partner voices. Students will discover through a process of reflection how service connects to personal growth and course content, enhances their ability to engage with diverse perspectives, and fosters essential life skills, all while working alongside communities to address systemic injustice. A standout feature of this book is the inclusion of embedded QR codes, offering instant access to online resources and videos that allow students to go deeper with the content and engage in authentic meaning-making and competency building. Perfect for service-learning, co-curricular service, or volunteer programs, this easy-to-read companion is an invaluable tool for enriching any student’s community-engaged learning journey.
