Abstract
This article explores the use of service learning in nontraditional course formats such as distance learning, compressed timeframe (nine-week) courses, with adult graduate student learners, based on explorations in seven courses. The authors’ experiences suggest that service learning, or client-based courses, can be successfully utilized in these contexts. Other successful variations on the concept included client-sharing and client-based course collaboration among academic departments, stakeholder-based presentations, and newspaper articles as a template for a service learning course. The paper also explores the general benefits of client-based courses in public administration and other courses, as well as their logistics and limitations.
