Description
The purpose of this research project is to determine student response to Service-Learning and the effectiveness of Service-Learning at Minnesota State University Mankato. Service-Learning is a combination of classroom learning, volunteering, and reflection on what you have learned. This project will discover if Service-Learning programs at MSU are: creating a productive learning experience, creating a preferred learning experience for students, promoting civic engagement and leadership, building student civic awareness, promoting greater involvement, and affecting men and women differently. The data will be attained through a survey process involving a random student sampling from all of the Service-Learning courses offered at MSU. The results will either reveal that Service-Learning is an effective tool or, if not, will provide insights to improve the program.
