At GRCC, service learning has been and continues to be one of the most rewarding teaching and learning practices. Impacting more than 1,000 students each year, service learning is spread across all disciplines. As a proven effective pedagogy, service learning has a positive impact on academic, social and cultural variables. Both students and faculty report that service learning increases the understanding and depth of course content while promoting the knowledge and understanding of civic and social issues. These experiences can be an excellent contribution for your teaching portfolio - perhaps as a Substantive Project.
