A Road Map for Empowering Undergraduates to Practice Service Leadership Through Service-Learning in Teams

Abstract: We present a road map for providing course-embedded service-learning team projects as opportunities for undergraduates to practice as service leaders in Asia and beyond. Basic foundations are that projects address authentic problems or needs, partner organization representatives (PORs) indicate availability for ongoing consultation, students receive a complete orientation to service leadership, and project themes align with course curricula. Infrastructure and support involves a bridge of interinstitutional co… Show more

“…There are also many notable published examples of student leadership development programs highlighting one or more specific dimensions of servant or authentic leadership. For example, some schools are using service learning projects embedded in various courses to emphasize the importance of community service and the servant leadership principle of putting the greater good above one's self interest (e.g., Snell, Chan, Ma, & Chan, 2015). Others are utilizing a campus-wide leadership initiative that embraces the servant leadership philosophy through incorporation of extensive community service and mentoring.…”

“…Any form of community service will likely influence students' stewardship (one of the characteristics of servant leadership), and thoughtful additions to community service experiences have the potential for influencing other characteristics of servant leadership as well. Adding a team, project-based dimension to community service (like that recommended by Snell et al, 2015) allows students to develop project management and relationship management skills/behaviors, and could help students to increase in accountability and empowerment. Community service that puts students 'outside of their comfort zone' could aid in developing interpersonal acceptance, and even humility and courage.…”

Although these approaches have offered deep and comprehensive insights into student experiences, as well as design and implementation issues during service-learning, it is difficult to compare qualitative findings across different studies (Toncar et al, 2006).…”
