Community Service: Connecting Active Citizenship and Preservice Teacher Education

Abstract

TThis study aims to examine the role of community service practices in developing teacher candidates’ active citizenship characteristics based on the perspectives of preservice teachers and teacher educators. Designed as a case study, the study includes 39 teacher candidates and 3 teacher educators, who were selected through criterion sampling strategy. The data were collected through 10 focus group interviews with the teacher candidates and 3 individual interviews with the teacher educators, all of which were conducted semi-structured and face-to-face. Based on the results of the study, both groups of participants thought that engaging in community service practices was conducive to foster prospective teachers’ (1) civic knowledge and awareness in relation to active citizenship, (2) civic skills in relation to active citizenship, (3) civic attitudes and values in relation to active citizenship, and (4) self-concept and self-identity in relation to active citizenship, as well as it had profound effects on (5) bridging the teacher candidates’ civic and professional identities with respect to active citizenship.
