Keys to implementing service learning in your classes

Beginning from the distinction between volunteerism and service learning, this session will discuss strategies and best practices for introducing meaningful service learning activities into your classes from 1:30-2:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 3, in 223 Hubbard Hall. Courtesy of the Office for Faculty Development and Student Success, a panel that includes faculty who currently use service learning will lead a discussion about formulating learning objectives, designing activities to meet those objectives, the importance of structured student reflections about their experiences, logistics and planning, dealing with surprises and more. This is an offering in the Institute on High Impact Practices, that is open to all instructors on campus. RSVP to 978-3209 or ofdss@wichita.edu.
