No
34. Number of included studies in the meta-analysis
35. Heterogeneity
(e.g I squared)
36. Pooled estimates
37. Confidence intervals (95%)
38. Key conclusions from study authors
The analyzed studies show the suitability to schedule SL activities not only to achieve academic but also personal, social, and citizenship outcomes. SL experiences are especially appropriate to foster greater commitment, justice, and social responsibility among students, as well as to foster self-esteem, self-confidence, and teamwork skills.
39. Review limitations
Most ofthe analyzed research studies have been conducted in American universities. Therefore, research is somehow geographically biased, and this should be considered when reviewing the conclusions. Along the same line, most ofthe analyzed studies fail to mention the existing cultural differences between different students who participate in the experience, which can also be addressed in further research. With regard to the research design, most ofthem are cross-sectional.
