Implementing and Evaluating Culturally Responsive Teaching for Historical Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) Through Study Abroad Programs

Abstract

This chapter focuses on social work methodology as a means of developing effective study abroad programs at HBCUs. Moreover, the chapter proposes ways to implement social work standards into study abroad programs for HBCU students. The chapter provides meaningful case studies to examine the impact of service-learning programs that employ culturally responsive teaching and learning strategies as well as social work standards for HBCU students on short-term programs. The chapter provides a myriad of strategies for culturally responsive teaching. While the focus is on social work education, the methods developed in this chapter may be used in service-learning settings.
