Service-Learning in Higher Education: Connecting the Global to the Local
Mark R. Wiegand PT PhD (Editor), Phylis Lan Lin PhD (Editor)
This book, the fifth of a series in contemporary service-learning topics published by the University of Indianapolis Press, has emerged from presentations at the Fourth International Symposium on Service-Learning held in China in September 2011. The contributors to this text are researchers, educators, and administrators of service-learning pedagogy, theory, and practice from many countries and diverse disciplines. The chapters inside provide the reader with an understanding of the broad range of topics in internationalization and pedagogy of service-learning in higher education.

Creating a Climate for Service Learning Success
A new publication from the American Association of Community Colleges, "Creating a Climate for Service Learning Success," provides ideas for developing and institutionalizing service learning on a college campus. The 40-page monograph features a variety of replicable examples from 13 colleges that participated in AACC’s 2006-2009 national grant program, Community Colleges Broadening Horizons through Service Learning.
While this monograph was written with community colleges in mind, it includes topics and tips that may also be useful for four-year colleges and universities, K-12 schools, and community-based organizations involved in service learning and community engagement.
