A Semester Long Service-Learning Project; Our Example

File pdf 346KB

In this session we will be sharing a semester long project that uses service-learning as its foundation and creates strong connections to the material from an undergraduate Management class. We wanted to do something different from the pure volunteering or consulting projects. Our goal was to provide our students with the opportunity to step outside their comfort zone and then to use that experience to bring to life concepts learned in class. We will discuss the challenges, keys to success, our results, and ideas for further improving the project.
