「服務學習」是一種學與教的理念與實踐方法將社會服務結合學科知識，讓學生透過籌劃、執行、反思和評估他們的服務經驗，從中學習及成長。

在「服務學習計劃」中，同學可根據對社會需要的了解，利用學科知識和技能設計及籌備屬於自己的服務學習計劃。在實踐計劃、服務他人的過程中，更瞭解自己所學的專業知識及進行自我反思，達致全人發展。

公開大學擁有範疇廣闊的學科，同學可藉此優勢與來自不同主修科目的同學進行跨學科的服務學習活動，結合不同學科的知識以提升學習及社會服務的質量。

Through our Service-Learning programmes, students can utilize academic knowledge and skills to design and prepare their own service plans based on social needs. In the process of practical planning and serving others, students could gain deeper insight of their professional knowledge and conduct self-reflection, so as to attain whole-person development.

OUHK provides a wide range of disciplines. Students can take advantages of it to carry out interdisciplinary Service-Learning activities with folks from different majors. The knowledge of different disciplines could then be integrated, and the learning quality and social service could be enhanced as well.
