Abstract:

This chapter examines the relationship between service-learning and resilience in disaffected youth. The study is grounded in a conceptual framework based on Marzano's (1998) theory-based meta-analysis of research on instruction and systems that govern human learning (e.g., the knowledge system, the cognitive system, the metacognitive system, and the self-system).(Author)
