Simmons Community Engagement
Service-Learning Course Submission
The service-learning course designation will help students identify courses that combine community
engagement with academic instruction. At its best, service-learning is a high-impact pedagogy which can
enhance student learning while providing tangible benefits to communities. For service-learning to be
effective in this manner and in line with our values as an institution, we emphasize the following practices;
course integration with quality reflection opportunities, a critical approach rooted in equity and inclusion, and
mutually beneficial partnerships with community.
Service-Learning courses should:
• Include community-based learning that is relevant to course content;
• Include structured reflection that enhances students’ understanding of connections between course
content and service;
• Take into account issues of equity and inclusion in their design
• Reflect the needs of the community and include projects created in collaboration with community
partners;
• Include evaluation by students and partners of the service project, course content, student learning
and community impact. (SCE can provide you with these)
Why designate Service-Learning courses?
• Identify courses that meet service-learning criteria in the schedule of the classes:
• Enable students with an interest in community-based learning to identify courses that offer them this
opportunity;
• Bring greater visibility to the practice of service-learning at Simmons and allow SCE to better track and
document the benefits of this pedagogy to students, the community, and the faculty;
• Be eligible to apply for Faculty Service-Learning Funds distributed by SCE
• Allow SCE to better support, provide training, and share opportunities with faculty and community
partners;
Procedures for designation
