About this title

Synopsis

This book provides successful models for field-based learning experiences in Family Life Education. Each chapter provides an overview of the implementation details, including key points that others developing a plan could use to guide their thinking. Each chapter is grounded in previous scholarship and identifies how the elements of high-impact practices are addressed in the “real world”. Contributors share their experiences implementing service learning, internships, and other educational platforms outside the classroom walls. This book also addresses both specific content areas within family life education, as well as general course management strategies.
