[PR]A.S.S.I. Apprendere serve, servire insegna: a project of Service Learning

Integrating Service Learning (SL) activities into academic courses can offer a transformative experience for students. In the twofold perspective of countering the learning loss, determined by the pandemic, and promoting student empowerment, enhancing responsible learning and self-regulating skills, a Service Learning project was implemented. The project started with a sample of 38 students enrolled in the first year of the Master’s Degree in Primary Education at the University of Palermo. To monitor the performance of the SL project, to measure the civic-social competences, self-efficacy and trait anxiety of university students, it was decided to administer a pre and a post of the CUCOCSA Questionnaire. This contribution shows how students acquired reflective, relational and research skills as well as civic-social and metacognitive attitudes.
