Community-Engaged Learning in the Classroom: Rubrics, Reflections & Resources

This session will discuss creative examples, strategies for grading, and best practices for leading students to reflect upon and make meaning of their community-engaged learning experiences. Hear from faculty peers, dialogue with colleagues, and leave with new ideas to enhance student learning and complement your teaching practices.

This event is part of the Summer Series for Faculty Practitioners: Special Topics in Community-Engaged Learning. The sessions will be offered this summer as a series of special topics for faculty practitioners to discuss academic community-engaged learning at MSU. Community-engaged learning combines academic coursework with institutional resources to address community needs and challenges. Implementation strategies range from direct service to advocacy to research to philanthropy, and more. Sessions will focus on building community partnerships, developing syllabi, managing logistics, and orienting students to enter a community with knowledge of identity, equity, and privilege. They will offer course design examples and highlight diverse reflection strategies. Through presentations and discussions, attendees will learn how to get started or enhance what they are already doing and connect to a network of peers and resource supports. All sessions will include recommendations for virtual formatting for community-engaged learning courses.
