Service learning describes a learning experience wherein community service is paired with structured preparation and guided reflection. This active learning opportunity exposes students to real-world situations, allowing them to put knowledge into practice.
The Play and Learn Foundation believes strongly in active learning, and so we have made it a key feature to our Akoma Ntoaso Summer Exchange Program. During the course of the program, exchange students like you will undertake an accredited course in Service Learning through the University of Ghana.
This Service Learning course is provided by the University of Ghana’s Department of Social Work. The successful completion of this course is worth 3-credit hours, which may be transferred to your home university (if applicable).
