Service Learning

Service Learning

Service learning at USI is a powerful community-based pedagogy technique. It integrates meaningful community service with instruction and structured reflection. It incorporates a diverse group of faculty, staff, and students.

Service Learning

Currently there are three different types of service learning at USI. Each service learning project will fall
under one of these three categories:

Academic
Course-based credit bearing strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and structured reflection.

Curricular
Involves service projects sponsored by a particular academic major or program of study that may occur outside of classes.

Co-Curricular
Community activities that involve learning objectives and opportunities for reflection that are not usually connected with credit courses.
