Service-Learning

Service-learning is an intentional teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful service with academic instruction and reflection. Through service-learning, students, faculty, and community partners collaborate to address real-life needs, locally, and globally. Through service-learning courses, students gain a deeper understanding of subject matter as well as complex social issues. Service-learning allows students to become skilled in relating theory with practice while building connections with the community and enhancing their future employment opportunities. Service-learning courses are also offered during the Winterim from time to time.  Due do the low cost of Winterim courses, it is an excellent time to participate in a service-learning course.
