lets talk about the link i posted, "changing education paradigms."
what did everyone think?
here, i will post it again..
click here.
has anyone heard of the center for service-learning and civic engagement? i sure hope so. but it is okay if you have no idea what i am talking about (i feel like a know-it-all because i intern there)
so my point.
mike sharp and his team work to create relationships between professors and the community to allow the opportunity for a course to be taught hands on and outside the classroom.
students have the opportunity to learn by being totally immersed in the community. some of the classes offered at uc include a psychology, english and communication courses.
so how do you feel about the concept of service-learning? do you think this is the future of teaching and learning?
service-learning is so cool. i have never really heard much about it though. i do agree with you, and really think students would get more out of this than sitting in a lecture hall all day.
