What Every Speech-Language Pathologist and Audiologist Should Know about Service-Learning provides key background information and practical strategies for students to successfully complete service-learning projects and for faculty members to easily manage service-learning activities in communication sciences and disorders. Using examples of service-learning projects and “how-to” strategies throughout, the text breaks down the process of service learning into manageable components and offers critical supports for students, faculty, and supervising clinicians. Further, the text guides students through the process of selecting, specifying, and completing successful service-learning projects using a proven process approach. Sample procedures, tools, forms, and contracts model how to conduct a successful service-learning project.
