Fall 2017 – Engaged Learning Forum

Engaged Learning Forum—”Clases, Comunidad y Colaboración: ROLL’s Role in Engaged Learning”

November 14, 2017

The Institute for Social Concerns Engaged Learning Forum series is open to anyone interested in academic community engagement. Whether you are just curious or are already active in community-engaged teaching, research, and/or learning, please join us to expand your knowledge and networks.

Faculty, community partners, and students from Spanish Community-Based Learning (CBL) heard about the impact that the program has on student learning, South Bend organizations, and faculty. During the past ten years, Spanish CBL has grown from an idea to seven classes per year across three levels taught by six different professors. Presenters will offer insight participants can apply to their own community-engaged scholarship.
