Abstract:
This study contributes to research on second language pedagogy by exploring the experience of advanced second language and heritage language university students of Spanish who, as part of their class, participated in a community-based learning experience in local health and social service clinics serving vulnerable populations. By focusing on students’ memories and perceptions of the experience as well as their acquisition of vocabulary, the study elucidates not only the concrete gains in linguistic ability but also the affective aspect of a community-based learning experience.
