Learning by Serving: Community Engagement through Service Experiences

File pdf 230KB

How can we help students to experience and better understand a "service ethic" in the workplace and community? This "share and tell" session will provide a focus on "Learning by Serving." Bring your ideas and share resources for facilitating this theme through:
*Service-Learning (often through volunteering/"voluntolding" with local non-profit agencies that provide social services)
*Servant Leadership (challenging students to rethink their concepts about leadership, and leading the way by providing service to others)
*Customer Service (asking students to reflect upon and evaluate their customer service experiences in their workplaces)
