With courses to degree programs centered on this concept, the discourse has been fueled by renewed discussion on students’ ability to “master skills” in college. As strategies in teaching, learning, and higher education continue to evolve, we argue that service learning plays a critical role in this shift to competency-based education frameworks but that other important methods of teaching competencies are equally important. We conducted interviews with instructors and students in a wide array of academic disciplines, as well as organizational leaders in various nonprofit sectors. Sampling diversity helps capture the range of perspectives around service learning and competency development. This research has important implications for instructors and faculty seeking best practices in designing service-learning courses and for community partners engaging in service-learning relationships with educational institutions.

In response to this issue, we join two literatures to study motivational differences in undergraduate college students and Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) cadets: Moskos’ Institutional and Occupational (I-O) enlistment motivation model and Kim et al.’s revised Public Service Motivation (PSM) scale. We survey ROTC cadets and undergraduates at a mid-size public university and find that PSM is higher for ROTC cadets than regular undergraduates. We also find that for ROTC cadets, the institutional motivators for enlistment correlate positively with the rational, normative, and affective dimensions of PSM. In addition, we find increases in the Occupational motivator and the compassion PSM dimension reduce the likelihood of being an ROTC cadet whereas the Institutional motivator and the self-sacrifice PSM dimension are positively related with being an ROTC cadet. }, number={4}, journal={PUBLIC PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT}, author={Ngaruiya, Katherine M. and Velez, Anne-Lise Knox and Clerkin, Richard M. and Taylor, Jami Kathleen}, year={2014}, month={Dec}, pages={442–458} } @article{taylor_clerkin_ngaruiya_velez_2015, title={An Exploratory Study of Public Service Motivation and the Institutional-Occupational Model of the Military}, volume={41}, ISSN={["1556-0848"]}, DOI={10.1177/0095327x13489119}, abstractNote={ This article empirically connects Moskos’ Institutional–Occupational model to the large body of cross-nationally validated research on public service motivation (PSM). We find that in our sample, the PSM construct is positively correlated with institutional motivations that reflect Moskos’ insights. We also find evidence that the four dimensions of PSM (Attraction to Public Participation, Commitment to Public Values, Self-sacrifice, and Compassion) may offer a more nuanced way to assess institutional motivations. Our research suggests that those interested in military recruitment/retention/performance and public administration scholars may have much to learn from each other. We call for further research in this area. }, number={1}, journal={ARMED FORCES & SOCIETY}, author={Taylor, Jami K. and Clerkin, Richard M. and Ngaruiya, Katherine M. and Velez, Anne-Lise Knox}, year={2015}, month={Jan}, pages={142–162} }
