Description

In a postmodern society, various conceptual and programmatic boundaries between schools, universities, and communities can be considered unnecessary, even "unnatural" (Anzaldua, 1987); they serve only to create a metaphorical place known as the "borderland" (Anzaldua, 1987; Garber, 1995; Hayes & Cuban, 1997). In service-learning programs, students are expected to cross borders that needlessly separate educational experiences situated in schools from those situated in communities. Service-learners must enter the borderland and explore its unfamiliar terrain, which can exist not only 'out' in the community, but also, on their own campuses. This paper explores the possibility of developing and situating a new type of service-learning in university art galleries, where knowledge is constructed and contextualized at the edge of the campus in a borderland that lies between school and community. A hybrid, as it were, this campus-based model promotes significant collaboration between preservice teachers (members of elementary art methods classes) and students from area schools in the largely unfamiliar territory of a gallery borderland. In so doing, this model identifies a type of service-learning experience that makes a difference to prospective teachers and schoolchildren alike. Framework for the Campus-Based Model
