For the teacher, CEL is time consuming, involves liaison with many stakeholders, and requires preparation and planning. Students can be daunted by the prospect of interacting with stakeholders and engaging in a professional manner with community groups. No longer an intellectual exercise in the comfort of the classroom; the student must embody the attributes of a planner in a real world setting. Despite the challenges, CEL can be a significant but rewarding undertaking for students, teachers and communities, which can result in impactful rewards for all.
