Tenets: Connecting to the personal and to communities outside of academia. Using technology intentionally to build communities and enhance learning.
Annotation: Evidence suggests community-engaged pedagogies are as effective in online courses as in traditional face-to-face delivery; however, guidance and examples for potential early adopters is limited, particularly in leadership education. As online delivery for leadership education expands, leadership educators may be hesitant to redesign community-engaged learning experiences for the online environment as a result of pedagogical and logistical concerns. Nevertheless, virtual community-engaged learning, or e-service-learning, has promise as an effective high-impact educational practice within leadership education. The current paper describes theoretical and practical considerations for leadership educators who intend to development community-engaged online courses.
