Since the National Community Service Trust Act of 1993, interest in service learning has been strengthened by the work of numerous national organizations that combine service and educational learning (Bringle & Hatcher, 1996). For example, in Ernest Boyer’s article “Creating the new American college” (1994), he showed concerns that higher education should reconsider its mission to educate students for a life as responsible citizens rather than educate students only for a career. In order to address his concern, service learning with the goal of educating students about their public responsibilities and their roles as citizens has become essential.
