Overview

Without Faculty, we'd have no Service-Learning

Service-learning is a key component of our school’s reaccreditation proposal. As pedagogy, it can reinforce any course’s adherence to Chaminade’s mission. Extensive research “proves” that well-implemented S-L is highly effective in promoting student learning outcomes.

• Why do Service-Learning at Chaminade?
• Basic Requirements for Service-Learning offerings.

Incorporating service-learning (S-L) into your syllabi can be easy. The S-L Office invited faculty to “get their feet wet” by experimenting with new integrations of S-L in their classes.

• View a variety of successful syllabus submissions.
• Criteria used to judge quality syllabus integration are included.

The Chaminade S-L Faculty Resource Handbook was disseminated at Faculty Retreat. It includes information about syllabus/course development, different types of service-learning, assessment rubrics, curricular links for all disciplines, reflection strategies, and information about using S-L as a vehicle for research and publication.

• Example of a rubric.
• Reflection strategies.

Contact the S-L Office if you would like to access the Chaminade S-L Handbook.

• Sullivan Family Library houses helpful S-L resources.
• Service-learning courses and professors, past and present.
