Abstract
ABSTRACT In order to offer students a thorough understanding of the complexity of trend analysis and forecasting and prepare them to be socially responsible citizens and professionals, the author developed an industry-academic collaboration and problem-based service-learning project for a Trend Analysis and Forecasting course. The purpose of this study was first, to explore the characteristics of problem-based service learning; second, to propose a problem-based service-learning model to guide its implementation into a learning exercise; and third, to present a case study of a problem-based service-learning project with industry-academic collaboration that was systemically implemented into a course and discuss its outcomes. Students’ participation in the project developed their sense of civic responsibility and critical-thinking skills while enhancing their discipline-specific learning. This study will help educators better understand problem-based service learning as a viable pedagogical approach and inspire them to effectively implement it into a curriculum.
