Service Learning

Service-Learning is a methodology that connects active learning with planned service that meets a community need. Ideally, in service-learning, students become active practitioners of their own education. They take the knowledge imparted in the classroom and apply it to a concrete situation. Research has shown that there is a significant benefit to service-learning programs over volunteer programs. Curricular integration deeply enhances the success of the assignments as well as our goals for our "graduates at graduation."
