摘要：The purpose of this reflective essay is to encourage the discussion of
community-engaged scholarship (CES) that does not progress as planned.
Insufficient attention is given to lessons gleaned from missteps and
outright failures experienced by scholars in the field, which results in
a paucity of documented cases and recommendations for improvement.
To address this gap in the literature, this article features vignettes from
scholars in the field whose experiential wisdom may inform practice
for individuals as well as institutional strategies. The authors discuss
implications for practice informed by their experience in developing
community-engaged scholars and the shared wisdom of the contributors
whose experience and failures provide insight for emerging scholars.
The essay concludes with recommendations for future research related
to how we experience and learn from failure in CES.
其他摘要：Diffusion of innovation in higher education requires attentive leadership and change management strategies as university members develop, pilot, and refine their products and infrastructure, including curriculum, policies, and processes. The adoption and integration of community-engaged scholarship is no exception; yet, insufficient attention is given to lessons gleaned from missteps and outright failures expected and experienced by scholars in the field. This article features vignettes from emerging and established scholars in the field whose experiential wisdom may inform practices and strategies as well as the authors’ thematic conclusion presented for those seeking to form or refine their community-engaged scholarship agenda.
