Service Learning

COURSE BASED SERVICE LEARNING

 "Course based service learning is a form of experiential education where students work with community members on community problems and where academically rigorous assignments are designed to explicitly link those experiences to specific learning outcomes." (Hartley, 2006)

Course Based Service Learning includes activities that are of direct service to the public, providing administrative support, doing consulting projects, assisting with resource production and completing community-based research on behalf of an organization.
