Service Learning In the Northwest Region

Foreword

This paper is one in a series of "hot topic" reports produced by the Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory. The series attempts to be a looking glass to specific topics in education, reflecting back to educators the requests they make of the Laboratory. These papers briefly address current educational concerns and issues as indicated by requests for information that come from the Northwest region and beyond. Each paper contains an explanation of the selected topic's relevance, a sampling of how Northwest schools are currently dealing with the issue, suggestions for adapting these ideas to schools, selected references, and contact information.

One objective of the series is to foster a sense of community and connection among educators. Another is to increase awareness of current education-related themes and concerns. The papers will give practitioners a glimpse of how fellow educators are addressing issues, overcoming obstacles, and celebrating success in specific areas. The series' goal ultimately, is to give educators current, reliable, and most importantly, useful information on topics that are important to them.
