Service Learning

REMEMBER- No matter what your product is, you should interview someone
within the community who can speak to your topics. This portion is about
interacting with other people and engaging your community in a meaningful way.
What is service learning?
Service learning is connecting academic curriculum to an activity that demonstrates caring and concern for others
in the community. Students actively participate in the process from planning to implementation, reflection and
evaluation in order to deepen the learning experience.
Why is service learning important?
Service learning provides a meaningful opportunity for students to connect learning and civic responsibility.
Students use the academic and social skills from the classroom and apply them in the context of real life
experiences to gain compassion, empathy, and a sense for the needs of others beyond their own.
