  • Title: Service learning: applications in midwifery education.
    Author: Farley CL.
    Journal: J Midwifery Womens Health; 2003; 48(6):444-8. PubMed ID: 14660950.
    Abstract:
    Service learning is learning acquired through experiential education that deliberately links service to others with the goal of achieving specific academic objectives. Service learning is an educational innovation that encompasses a wide range of activities and pedagogies while maintaining a commitment to principles of service. Although midwifery is a profession rooted in service to women and their families, scant attention has been paid to the purposeful inclusion of service-learning experiences in midwifery curricula. This article describes service learning and discusses practical applications in midwifery education.
