Abstract
This study aims to elevate performativity in humanities education through the implementation of service learning in the design and instruction of English Children’s Literature. In this service learning case study, participants enrolled in an English Children’s Literature course collaborated to develop creative English education programs and activity plans based on their classroom learning. They also performed a six-week educational service in diverse local settings, including an elementary school, children’s centers, and community welfare facilities. Throughout the service period, students maintained reflective weekly journals, critically contemplating their experiences and insights gained during their community engagement. Additionally, they had the opportunity to share their service experiences through presentations and evaluation activities. Results from a survey indicate overwhelmingly positive responses from the participants towards service learning. The study showcases how this approach invigorates humanities education by empowering students to actively shape their learning journey while fostering meaningful connections with the community.
