Details | To respond to the requirement of the sustainable development agenda, Malaysian and Japanese universities started the service learning projects as their own curriculums. The purpose of service learning is to enhance the Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship Education. Usually, educators of the service learning choose and set the educational purpose and the community that students visit. However, it is also crucial to consider communities’ everyday lives and feelings, with respect to, for instance, happiness or well-being. Service learning is meant to allow students to both convey university knowledge to a community, and to live together with a community. We investigated the service learning programs in Malaysia and Japan from the perspective of cultural studies and philosophy and found that different ways of communicating with communities lead to various results in the service learning. |
