Abstract

Service-learning is a teaching strategy that provides students an opportunity to increase knowledge and skills as well as further improve their personal development. The workplace and marketplace continues to be more diverse, as does the college population. This study includes a highly diverse international student sample. Significant differences are found between United States and international students' performance in courses that include service-learning, or learning by doing projects.
