Abstract

Service-learning is a teaching and learning methodology that integrates community service with academic coursework, enhancing the students’ learning experience. This communication summarizes the results obtained in two teaching projects in which students applied course contents to community-based activities, incorporating learning and community action goals. These projects were designed by a group of university professors from the Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences of the University of León, and were carried out by a selected group of students from the Degrees in Biology, Biotechnology and Environmental Sciences, in collaboration with different community partners. The purpose of these teaching experiences was to provide the students with a hand-on experience that linked personal and social development, helping them to develop new skills difficult to acquire with traditional teaching methods. Moreover, service-learning projects enhance community-university relations improving institutional commitment with the society. Our final goal is to publicize the benefits of community engagement pedagogies like service-learning among students and professors and to set the path to integrate them into the existing curriculum of the University of Leon.
