Need to Consider Service Learning in Developing
Future Vocational Education Programs
The author affirms why service-learning should be combined with
job training. Service-learning contextualizes the student's
learning. It can provide the missing link for school-to-work
transition at all levels of the educational ladder. Service-learning
provides experience in planning, management, and responsibility
that a student might not otherwise experience in a school-to-work
setting.
