摘要：
Intergenerational service-learning has become an important component of many educational gerontology programs. The model at the University of North Carolina Charlotte incorporates multiple elements of student choice within a very structured service-learning experience. A review of the literature reveals some discussion of the value of choice, but very little utilization of choice within a structured intergenerational service-learning model. Qualitative analysis of data from 210 student reflection papers reveals the experience of having choices in structured undergraduate service-learning. These findings support the utilization of choice within structure as a best practice in intergenerational service-learning.
