With great candor and sophistication, this book explores the complexities of preparing democratic citizens through service learning. Drawing on many disciplines, the authors pair insights about the task's often surprising points of resistance with practical strategies for negotiating its many shoals. Vivid and engaging stories about teaching dilemmas and the students who inhabit them provide something like a wise and supportive friend and counselor to readers who wish to take on this work themselves., "A perfect road map for faculty to assist them in taking their students to the next level of awareness, service, and engagement.This book provides faculty with thought provoking scenarios on how to address dilemmas encountered in implementing service learning. It provides useful illustrations on how "to handle" the dilemmas without infringing on intellectual freedom, values, or judgment of all parties involved by utilizing civil public discourse and reinforcing the importance of civic engagement. Excellent work by all the authors.", Over the course of recent decades, I have been increasingly concerned by the evidence that our democracy is in serious trouble. College students are not alone responsible for fixing the messes that the generations before them have created. But unless they are educated to engage in democracy--and not simply sit on the sidelines--the mess can only get worse--much worse. This book is a powerful set of lessons about how to engage college students in ways that are challenging, provocative, and that, most important, provide learning that lasts for active citizenry. I cannot imagine a more important task., "A perfect road map for faculty to assist them in taking their students to the next level of awareness, service, and engagement. This book provides faculty with thought provoking scenarios on how to address dilemmas encountered in implementing service learning. It provides useful illustrations on how "to handle" the dilemmas without infringing on intellectual freedom, values, or judgment of all parties involved by utilizing civil public discourse and reinforcing the importance of civic engagement. Excellent work by all the authors.", The value of this book is no dilemma. For the first time we have a collection of critically framed teaching cases that deals with the often unspoken challenges of teaching service-learning courses. Over twenty faculty scholars from diverse disciplines identify these dilemmas, share curricular designs, and suggest instructional approaches. Whether teaching a service-learning course for the first time or for decades, this book is a required resource to foster democratic, political engagement in our students., Democratic Dilemmas critically examines the diverse and complex dimensions of our democracy when approaching community engagement through service-learning. By using real life case studies, the authors have created for faculty an invaluable contribution to the growth and success of this pedagogy.
