Résumé :
|
"Service learning is a pedagogical strategy in which students complete a project at a community-based organization where they can apply classroom skills in a real-world context. Service learning can benefit student learning outcomes and continues to expand in public health education; yet there is the potential for ethical concerns. In particular, service learning may reinforce inequities between academic institutions and community organizations by positioning academic institutions as holding significant power and resources and inadvertently promoting this dynamic to students. This perspective provides an overview of service learning in public health and related fields, discusses the benefits of service learning as well as the gaps in standardization and evaluation, and highlights situations in which inequities may emerge. Recommendations are provided, with the goal of helping future health promotion professionals better meet the objective of fostering social justice through public health."
