Service Learning is a course-based experiential learning strategy. It engages students in meaningful and relevant service with a community partner while employing ongoing reflection to draw connections between the service and course content, thus enhancing academic learning, promoting civic responsiveness, and strengthening communities.

Service Learning aims to enhance academic learning by challenging students to apply classroom knowledge to real life situations. Because Service Learning addresses actual community needs, it has the added potential to engage students in ways that other experiential methods may not.

The Service Learning Program provides consultation and support to help faculty, staff, students, and community partners plan and execute effective service-learning projects. In addition it:

• Identifies community needs that can be addressed through service-learning.
• Supports the integration of service-learning across the curriculum.
• Builds long-term relationships between the university and community.
• Offers faculty development opportunities related to service-learning.
• Recognizes and rewards significant service-learning work.
• Identifies, helps develop, and promotes service-learning courses.
• Encourages student participation and coordinates the assessment of student learning.聽

In accordance with 缅北强奸鈥檚 mission statement and Carnegie Foundation compliance standards, the 缅北强奸 Service Learning Program supports both academic and co-curricular service-learning projects.聽The service-learning program at 缅北强奸 includes both direct and indirect service-learning experiences.

Direct Service-Learning activities are those that require personal contact with the population served by the community organization. Examples of direct service activities include students' tutoring at-risk children, students working with ex-offenders to help them develop job-readiness skills, and working with homeless individuals to secure stable housing. Direct service provides students with experience interacting with individuals from different cultures and backgrounds and teaches students to take responsibility for their actions. Students who participate in direct service-learning may also learn that they can make a difference.

Indirect Service-Learning activities often focus on a specific problem issue rather than working directly with individuals who may benefit from the service. Often students do not come in contact with the individuals who will be the recipients of their efforts. Examples of indirect service include collecting school supplies for children from low-income families, participating in designing or landscaping a community park or other environmental projects. Indirect service projects are frequently done by groups of students. Indirect service- learning can promote teamwork and help students develop organizational skills.
