Towards Improved Student Experiences in Service Learning in Information Systems Courses
Petkova, Olga
Information Systems Education Journal, v15 n1 p86-93 Jan 2017
The paper explores relevant past research on service-learning in Information Systems courses since 2000. One of the conclusions from this is that most of the publications are not founded on specific theoretical models and are mainly about sharing instructor or student experiences. Then several theoretical frameworks from Education and other disciplines and their relevance for service-learning are analyzed. As a result, several directions for future research towards improvement of service-learning in IS education are proposed.
