Harkavy, Ira; Benson, Lee – New Directions for Teaching and Learning, 1998
Examines the theoretical bases of academic service learning, with particular attention to John Dewey's contributions. Conceptualizes the service learning movement as part of an ongoing, and still unsuccessful, effort to "de-Platonize" and democratize American higher education in articular and American schooling in general.
