| Abstract | Service-learning and residential-learning are two approaches for integrated education that aim at stimulating students to synthesize what they learn in different courses and to connect in- and out-of-classroom experiences. An increasing number of higher education institutions in Asia have adopted these approaches in order for students to cultivate knowledge, skills and values that are essential to civic engagement and global citizenship. This paper aims to critically assess the learning perceived by students who participated in a recent cross-border service-learning program organized by a residential college of a Macau university in a township in Sichuan Province of China which was badly stricken by the Great Earthquake in 2008. Several key facets of students’ perceived learning through active engagement in the student-led service activities are identified and examined. The results are cross-checked with the five intended learning outcomes of the program. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of how to improve educational programming in the intertwined yet under-researched context of service-learning and residential college in the East Asia region. |
