No, I didn’t. The "Research-Based Service-Learning" is the most interesting since it combines the education process, society, and research, thus reflecting the essence of the University education.

No, but students could develop essential skills such as communication, problem-solving, and teamwork. Service learning could allow students to connect with professionals in public health institutions and hospitals. Service learning could encourage students. It could enhance students' understanding of course material. I see possibilities to incorporate service learning into health science courses.

Yes, I was aware of some types of Service Learning, especially the indirect service type, where students work on projects that benefit the community without direct contact, such as environmental campaigns or research. In my opinion, this type is the most interesting and useful to apply in my courses because it allows students to connect academic knowledge with real-world impact, develop teamwork and problem-solving skills, and understand how their studies can contribute to society.
