What is Service Learning?

Service Learning is a method of teaching and learning that enriches your academic life and life-long learning by engaging you in meaningful hands-on service to the community while gaining valuable knowledge and skills that integrate with course objectives. Service Learning focuses on critical reflective thinking and experiential learning that address local needs and foster civic responsibility.
