Support for Faculty
Each year faculty at The Ohio State University include service-learning in over 70 courses to enrich the understanding of course content, broaden appreciation of the discipline, and enhance development of civic responsibility. Faculty engaged in community-based scholarship have increased opportunities not only to enrich teaching and integrate service, but also to design research to improve future learning and service outcomes. The Service-Learning Initiative offers a variety of resources to support faculty in service-learning courses:
- Technical assistance with course development
- Faculty development workshops and other events
- Identification of community partners
- Assistance with service placement and management
