Abstract: Scholars agree that reciprocity—mutuality in a partnership between an educational institution and a community—is a cornerstone of Community-Based learning (CBL); however, operationalization of this concept varies widely in engineering practice and across disciplines. To enhance the potential of CBL practice to fulfill its promise for societal impact, engineering educators and scholars must understand how […]
