Academic Setting

Environmental sustainability and sustainable development principles are vital topics that engineering education has largely failed to address. Service-learning, which integrates social service into an academic setting, is an emerging tool that can be leveraged to teach sustainable design to future engineers. We present a model of using service-learning to teach sustainable design based on the experiences of the Stanford chapter of Engineers for a Sustainable World. The model involves the identification of projects and partner organizations, a student led, project-based design course, and internships coordinated with partner organizations. The model has been very successful, although limitations and challenges exist. These are discussed along with future directions for expanding the model.

El planteamiento inicial desde la aparición de los nuevos grados en la comunidad universitaria, tiene en común exigir a los estudiantes ir adquiriendo a lo largo de su formación, una serie de competencias que permitan alcanzar aquellos conocimientos, actitudes y destrezas: personales, profesionales y metodológicas, que se requieren para el desempeño de cada una de las profesiones. Aunque las competencias no son de obligado cumplimiento dentro de la antigua titulación de Magisterio de Educación Física en la Universidad de Huelva, nace la curiosidad por saber qué competencias y en qué grado se están desarrollando actualmente. De esta manera, los docentes universitarios tendrán una referencia más objetiva partiendo desde la realidad del alumnado, incidiendo en aquellas competencias que menos se desarrollan y reforzando las que más se favorecen en la actualidad. La metodología utilizada fue la cuantitativa, utilizando el cuestionario como instrumento de recogida de los datos y su posterior análisis a través del programa informático SPSS versión 18. La muestra estuvo formada por alumnos/as del último curso de Magisterio de Educación Física de la Universidad de Huelva, docentes del Área de Educación Física de dicha Universidad y maestros en activo de la especialidad señalada de la provincia de Huelva. Palabra clave: formación, competencias, alumnado, Educación Física.Abstract: The aim of the new degrees in the university community has in common to require students begin to acquire over their training, a range of skills to achieve the knowledge, attitudes and skills: personal, professional and methodological required for the performance of each of the professions. Although the skills are not mandatory in the old degrade of Teacher of Physical Education at the University of Huelva, one must know what skills and to what degree are currently being developed. Thus, university lecturers have a more objective reference starting from the reality of students, focusing on those skills that are less developed and strengthening the most favored ones today. The methodology used was quantitative, using the questionnaire as a measurement instrument and subsequent analysis through SPSS version 18 program. The sample was composed of pupils of the last year of teaching Physical Education at the University of Huelva, the lectures of Physical Education Area of the University and teachers in active of the province of HuelvaKey words: training, skills, students, Physical Education.

The concept of Service-Learning has been presented in the article. The essence and features of Service-learning have been determined. The difference between Service-Learning, volunteering and practice have been indicated. Service- Learning at the university is aimed at solving community problems, but does not involve the acquisition of professional skills and is not a part of the course in the structure of the curriculum. Practice involves the acquisition of professional skills, but is not always aimed at solving community problems. Service-Learning is defined as an educational approach that unionizes the content of academic learning with the solution of real problems of the community. Service-Learning is the delivery of a service to the community within the context of an educational program of study. Typical features of Service - Learning are: Service - meeting of real needs of the community by working together with that community; Learning - implementing in the curriculum of students (students using their academic knowledge in fieldwork for meeting real needs and real problem solving in the community). The article has presented possibilities of introduction of Service-Learning in educational process of university. The stages and cross-cutting processes of development and implementation of a Service-Learning project have been characterized. The content of project activity in the context of Service-Learning have been idefined and detailed: motivation; diagnosis; design and planning; project implementation; closure. The content of cross-cutting processes in the system of Service-Learning has been revealed: reflection; ongoing record, systematization and communication; process evaluation or monitoring. Foreign and domestic practices of Service-Learning in the conditions of universities and non-formal education have been analyzed. The advantages of Service-Learning are determined not only for specialties with a certain social component (social work, educational, pedagogical sciences), but also for other specialties. Opportunities of extrapolation of experience of Service-Learning in universities of Italy, Slovakia, and Malaysia in Ukraine have been identified. Prospects for the transformation of forms and methods of Service-Learning in Ukraine Universities have been determined experimentally. The author investigates feasibility of implementation of Service-Learning in Ukrainian Universities. The feasibility has been defined by means of questionnaires. Survey analysis shows that the vast majority of students are willing to participate in projects or initiatives that address problems and meet community needs. Also, the vast majority of students think that such projects should be implemented in the curriculum.

Service-learning (SL) provides an opportunity for students to learn personal and professional skills while providing a useful service to the community. Many pharmacy education programs use SL within their curriculum because of the benefits to the community, the faculty, the learning institution and the student(s). While SL has been used in schools/colleges of pharmacy for many years, SL that also fulfills IPPE requirements is newer. This paper seeks to promote the use of combined SL/IPPE experiences. It provides an example where students volunteered at federally qualified health centers and also reviews the ACPE Standards related to SL. Schools/colleges of pharmacy are encouraged to design mechanisms for students to participate in combined SL/IPPE experiences as part of their IPPE requirements.   Type: Idea Paper
