Target audience: faculty interested in exploring the nuts and bolts of designing and implementing community-based service-learning enhanced coursework through project-based or weekly engagement. Improve upon existing practice, or come brand new to the topic.
Service-learning can be a powerful teaching and learning tool, providing opportunities for students to apply academic concepts to authentic community needs, issues, and problems. This workshop delivers an overview of service-learning pedagogy, benefits, and best practices for those interested in enhancing existing courses or creating a new service-learning course. Participants will be introduced to a service-learning course design model with hands-on activities and tools to go from initial concept to completed course design, and will learn of the university resources available to support community engagement.
Participants Will:
• Gain strategies for effectively integrating project-based and weekly service‐learning into their coursework
• Gain knowledge and effective tools for implementing service‐learning as a pedagogical strategy that leads to deepened learning and a long‐term community commitment
• Support the JCU strategic plan to inspire critical, reflective thinking and a commitment to making responsible contributions within a community
• Collaborate and network with faculty from across JCU
• Receive an array of resources in print and accessible via the web
