摘要:The present paper assesses the effect of incorporating a service-learning component into a Spanish Education class. Twenty Ohio University students participated in the study. The students organized a one-day Spanish pronunciation workshop with a group of High School students from an underserved, rural area. In general, the college students evaluated the experience very positively. Their main satisfaction derived from being able to apply their knowledge while reaching out to the community. However, they also reported difficulties adapting their teaching materials and organizing themselves efficiently. They felt the role of their instructor was decisive in the success of their project.
