Interdisciplinary Service-Learning Among Economics...

Theology 141 (Theology of a Catholic Social Vision), Political Science 100 (Politics and Governance), and Economics 177 (Theory and Practice of Social Development) are simultaneously offered in for senior Economics majors. Educators of these three courses have sought an interdisciplinary approach to service-learning to maximize students’ community output while meeting their respective learning outcomes more meaningfully. This facilitated increased relevance of the courses, especially after students realized their potential to help poorer Filipinos through academic work that provided service.
