摘要
This article provides an overview of collaborative service learning activities as they are incorporated into university curricula designed for the nontraditional student. The basic tenets of the concept of andragogy are briefly reviewed to emphasize the special considerations that need to be addressed to ensure the successful inclusion of collaborative service initiatives for the adult learner. Some specific inclusion suggestions are offered to maximize the impact and meaningfulness of these unique learning opportunities.
