There's still time to sign up for the 2016 Service Learning Seminar!
The P-16 Initiative in the Service Learning Academy has designed an interactive training that provides an opportunity for faculty to learn how to use service learning as a pedagogy, to connect faculty to K-12 instructors and community non-profit partners, and to explore mission-focused teaching techniques in a living laboratory while meeting community-identified needs. Participation in the training will yield a course plan developed between the UNO and PK-12 instructor to be implemented within the next 18 months. Participants receive a $400 professional development stipend as well as project implementation support in the form of: graduate assistant time, project materials, transportation, and food. Applications accepted at http://www.unomaha.edu/blogs/sla/2015/09/2016-service-learning-seminar.php.
Faculty members new to service learning as well as those teaching using service learning are encouraged to participate. Questions? Contact Julie Dierberger at 402-554-3268 or jdierberger@unomaha.edu.
