Comunidades de aprendizaje: ¿qué aportan a los voluntarios y voluntarias universitarios?

Abstract

This paper presents the assessment of the voluntary students who have participated in centers established as Learning Community. We have carried out a content analysis of 23 reports of students of the degree in psychology from the University of Sevilla. The results have been grouped into five blocks that refer to: a) what benefit have they obtained from collaborating in the voluntary service; b) how have they felt during the collaboration; c) what are the positive aspects that they would like to highlight from the experience; d) what are the negative aspects of the experience and, lastly; e) improvement proposals that they would like to put forward. The main conclusion of this paper is that, in the view of its participants, this experience has brought them many benefits both at professional and personal levels, being a highly positively valued practice that they would recommend to others colleagues and they would repeat.
