Service-Learning in Finance: Enhancing Financial Advisory Education Through Community-Oriented Learning in Higher Education

This study examines the implementation of service-learning methodology in finance courses at the Public University of Navarre. The research focuses on a challenge where students create educational videos on financial literacy for a non-specialized audience, integrating knowledge from four specialized courses. The aim was to enhance students' understanding of financial concepts while developing crucial skills. Results show high average grades in the challenge and positive student feedback, indicating the effectiveness of this approach in deepening subject knowledge and connecting academic content to real-world applications. The study concludes that service-learning in finance education significantly contributes to students' skill development, particularly in teamwork, information management, and creativity, while simultaneously addressing community needs for financial literacy.
