Service-Learning integrates experiences outside the classroom with an academic curriculum taught within the classroom.  As one form of “experiential education,” Service-Learning seeks to broaden students’ understanding of course content through activities which are, at the same time, of service to the community.  Through structured reflection on their service, students are able to test and deepen their understanding of theoretical approaches in virtually any discipline.
