dc.description.abstractThis study investigates university instructors’ awareness and readiness to implement service learning (SL) and electronic service learning (e-SL) within higher education, with a focus on Slovak departments of languages at Matej Bel University (MBU). Using qualitative data from interviews with ten instructors, the study explores perceptions, institutional support, and barriers to SL and e-SL adoption. Results reveal general awareness of SL, but limited familiarity with e-SL. Most participants indicated a willingness to undergo SL/e-SL training. However, a gap exists between the university’s strategic commitment to SL and its practical support at the faculty level. This misalignment may hinder broader adoption of the methodology. The study concludes that successful implementation requires not only awareness and training but also structural and cultural shifts within academic institutions. SL and e-SL offer significant potential for advancing civic responsibility, inclusive education, and community engagement, yet their effectiveness depends on holistic institutional support and the redefinition of faculty roles.
