Service learning (or community based learning) in the classroom is an opportunity for students to engage the curriculum in meaningful experiences that integrates academic goals while benefiting the community. Traditionally, this is accomplished through face-to-face classes participating as a whole class on one project over many hours. This presentation focuses on the uniqueness of the online class and will cover the basic elements of a service learning project, implementing a service learning project, and the techniques used for students to be successful in their projects. Aspects of developing community relationships within the academic discipline and the required paperwork for JCCC will also be covered.
