The article finishes with a case study of one particular high-impact social work class, a short-term study abroad/service-learning course in Guatemala, and presents both quantitative and qualitative data that suggests that the implementation of high-impact practices positively influences the kind of transformative learning social work programs strive to deliver. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
