Das inzwischen auch an vielen Hochschulen in Deutschland implementierte Konzept des Service-Learning sieht eine Verschränkung von wissenschaftlichem Arbeiten und ehrenamtlicher Praxiserfahrung vor. Wichtig ist dabei, dass Studierende selbst auf dem Hintergrund einer intensiven Erarbeitung von theoretischen und empirischen Grundlagen eigene Projektideen für die Praxis entwickeln und umsetzen. Insofern wird ein zweisemestriger Zyklus von Erarbeitung der wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen sowie empirische Bedarfsermittlung (1. Semester), Entwicklung und Umsetzung von konkreten Teilprojekten (2.
