Maximizing service and learning in an international engineering service learning program
2015 IEEE Global Humanitarian Technology Conference (GHTC), 2015Service-learning (SL) is a teaching method that combines classroom instruction with community service. Engineering SL provides students the opportunity to apply their theoretical technical knowledge to a meaningful hands-on field experience designed to solve real-world problems faced by people and communities.

The State of Service-Learning and Service-Learning Research
2000Service-learning has become more popular among practitioners and researchers at both the K-12 and higher education levels. Is service-learning distinct enough to be a “field?” Are service-learning practitioners and researchers engaged in the types of activities that are associated with field-building?

Adaptive learning in service operations
Decision Support Systems, 2012We propose a decision analytics approach that leverages adaptive learning in the refinement of service operations. We aim to integrate service design and service pricing with downstream operational decision-making related to service provision. This approach involves: collecting consumer data and establishing consumer behavior models; integrating ...

Is there service in computing service learning?
Proceedings of the 43rd ACM technical symposium on Computer Science Education, 2012A variety of researchers have advocated for service learning projects in post-secondary computing programs. While these projects can achieve important disciplinary outcomes for the students, what has been under examined is the benefit that these projects have for the service recipients and their community.
