New Resources to Advance Service-Learning Research
Two new “infrastructure development” projects for the advancement of research on service-learning and civic engagement will go live online late this November. In response to challenges that researchers and practitioners continue to face in accessing complete and up-to-date information, the Service-Learning Research and Development Center at the University of California-Berkeley is launching two new projects: a national directory of service-learning and civic engagement research and a service-learning research e-newsletter. Both are being funded with a grant from the Spencer Foundation.
The research directory will link visitors directly to a number of websites currently hosting major service-learning research databases. The search engines of these online resources will be posted on a single page of the directory, providing a one-stop so! urce for accessing available research. The major websites to be included in the directory are the National Service-Learning Clearinghouse, the UCLA Service-Learning Clearinghouse Project, the Center for Civic Education, the Campus Compact National Network, the US Department of Education, and many others. Find it online starting November 30 at http://gse.Berkeley.edu/research/slrdc/resdirectory.
The Service-Learning Research E-newsletter will be launched on the same day and disseminated by email to subscribers twice monthly at no charge. Each edition of the newsletter will provide details about new and upcoming events, activities, conferences, publications, funding opportunities, studies, awards, as well as other information on service-learning research and the broader field of civic engagement. To subscri! be or contribute an announcement to the newsletter, send an email to Jane Po, [email protected].
