SCHC Service Learning for Faculty

PageTitle

	What is Service-Learning?
	"Service-learning is a form of experiential education where learning occurs through a cycle of action and reflection as students work with others through a process of applying what they are learning to community problems and, at the same time, reflecting upon their experience as they seek to achieve real objective for the community and deeper understanding and skills for themselves. In the process, students link personal and social development with academic and cognitive develpment...experience enhances understanding; understanding leads to more effective action." Eyler & Giles from Where's the Learning in Service-Learning, 1999.

	Teach a Service-Learning Course
	Faculty are encouraged to attend a Faculty Idea Exchange Meeting sponsored by the SC Honors College in the fall and spring. Information will be exchanged regarding the incorporation of service-learning into existing courses as well as the creation of new service-learning courses.
