Service Learning starts when students go out into the community and do good works. It doesn't stop there, though.
Service learning goes on to help students process what they learned during their service work.
In addition, in service learning programs, students' service opportunities can be tailored around what they are learning in a specific class or major. For example, students who are studying justice issues may want to enhance their education by working with community programs that deal with the same issues. Student Life professionals at NCWC help create opportunities for service learning by helping students find a service project that works for them. Then, we help students understand what they learned from their experiences by leading reflection sessions and other activities in which students share their experiences with each other and with the community.
