Abstract

This seminar reports how action research has helped improve students’ intercultural effectiveness and global citizenship development from international service-learning (ISL). Teachers from three ISL subjects will share their reflections on the action research experience, including: (1) problems they have identified, (2) improvements they have taken, and (3) the impact of these improvements on student learning. This workshop is Jointly organized by CoP in SL, CoP-SLHE and EDC.

CoP-SLHE is an UGC-funded initiative jointly organised by Hong Kong Baptist University, Lingnan University, The Education University of Hong Kong and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Our goal is to facilitate sharing of experiences among SL practitioners and interested staff from all UGC-funded institutions and to promote collective learning and the scholarship of teaching and learning in Service-Learning.
