This workshop provides a summary of the theory and rationale for community-based learning pedagogy which includes: service-learning, experiential education and community projects. We explore how community service experiences can be integrated with course content, and how instructors and community partners work together to make this a mutually beneficial experience. Participants learn about the resources offered through VCU’s Division of Community Engagement.
