Book synopsis

This study provides evidence for the differences in§personality between educators who do and do not§utilize the pedagogy of service-learning. Two major§scales, the Ohio State Teacher Efficacy Scale§constructed by Tschannen-Moran and Hoy and the§Self-Report Altruism Scale constructed by Rushton,§Chrisjohn and Fekken were administered to a total of§128 higher education professors, 58 of whom integrate§community service into the curriculum. §§A major finding was that service-learning educators§scored significantly higher than non-service-learning§educators on the OSTES. Analysis of the individual§questions conveys that service-learning educators§believe they play a greater role in the design,§implementation and assessment of the learning§experiences of students. §§Also, this study found that service-learning§educators do not score significantly higher than§non-service-learning educators on the SRAS. However,§analyses of individual questions on this scale convey§service-learning educators, on average, engage in§more acts of charity, as well as direct services than§non-service-learning educators. The results reveal a§service orientation possessed by service-learning§educators; professionally and personally,§service-learning educators are civically engaged.
