| Abstract | Service-learning and residential-learning are two integrated educational practices increasingly recognised by higher education institutions in East Asia, including the case university in Macau. Placing service-learning within the residential college (RC) setting is one of the university’s strategies to weave liberal education and civic engagement into the core educational experiences of students. With the methodology of action research and through a critical reflection on the implementation of a recent international service-learning trip to Laos, this research paper aims to identify approaches to effective service-learning for RC students. Based on multiple sources of data, such as interviews, activity records and student reflective work, a number of issues critical to RC service-learning programming are examined, for example, the needs to develop stronger links between student formal learning and service experience, to reinforce student ownership in different stages of the programme, and to provide professional development programmes for faculty as programme leaders and facilitators. |
