WHAT IS SERVICE LEARNING?
Service Learning is a teaching and learning strategy. It is more than simply community service. Service-learning connects the act of service with rigorous preparation and reflection. The act of service becomes a tool for learning. Service-learning is hands-on, experiential, authentic learning. Service-learning also gives students a chance to make a positive contribution in their community.
