Throughout the 90s and early 2000s, service-learning research was
intensely focused on the student outcomes. That body of research
has effectively brought service-learning from the fringes into the
mainstream of institutionalized pedagogies. In the past decade
service-learning research has experienced an infusion of
exploration in three distinct ways: first, large-scale quantitative
methodologies; second, a proliferation of research that has
explored how different sub-groups of students experience the
pedagogy differently, thusly resulting in variation among outcomes;
and third, a focus on the experiences and outcomes associated for
communities and community partners engaged in service-learning. In
an effort to support these movements, this volume of the Advances
in Service-Learning Research series, Service-Learning to Advance
Access & Success: Bridging Institutional and Community
Capacity, focuses on how service-learning can advance access and
success. Not simply access and success of students, but the ways
that service-learning can advance access and success for all
through bridging institutional and community capacity building. The
chapters in this volume serve as a testament to the ways in which
service-learning research continue to be advanced by thoughtful
scholar-practitioners. The 12 chapters included in this volume are
organized into three sections. The first section focuses on how
institutional and community partnerships can be leveraged to build
community capacity. The second section focuses on how institutions
might build their own capacity to effect change for the good of
society. The third and final section focuses on six studies
exploring the relationship service-learning pedagogy has with
access and success for students. Of the six studies, three are
situated within the context of teacher-preparation programs.
