A study on Hong Kong undergraduates’ intercultural competence development through international service-learning

Research output: Contribution to conferencePapers

Abstract

The present study investigates the association between international service-learning and undergraduates’ intercultural competence. By a mixed-method examination, it was found that international service-learning promoted undergraduates’ intercultural competence in cognitive, affective, and behavioral aspects and three influential service elements were identified: diversity, close interaction with local people, and youth voice.
