What Educators Are Saying:
This publication conveys so clearly the voices of teachers talking to other teachers; thats a real pleasure. It not only offers the products of shared work and reflection among teachers, it models it. The Workbooks message in the medium is: You can do this too.

Thetford Academy
National Service-Learning Leader School
On a practical level, Connecting Service-Learning to the Curriculum is an outstanding resource. I have already used the book to develop a strategic plan for the upcoming year and plan on using it in future technical assistance efforts and service-learning workshops. The guides provide excellent tools for strategic planning purposes....

For schools that have never attempted service-learning, or thought about integration into the curriculum, the Workbook provides a philosophy and a plan of action. The Workbook is also appropriate for veterans of service-learning in prompting a review of best practice.”

The Workbook offers a really clear approach to Best Practices especially at the instructional level. The Workbook is especially clear in identifying key components of social education.

I use materials from Community Works both for my own planning and development, and in my work training K-12 teachers. Nine out of ten teachers gravitate toward the Community Works tools.
While there are many resources available on the Service-Learning market, I continuously return to materials from Community Works.
