Service learning is a form of experiential learning in which students combine classroom experience with community-based service. Service activities provide a forum for students to meet an identified community need while also gaining understanding and experience related to the course content. This method allows students to “learn by doing.” The Service Learning Program at MSU Denver also provides mentoring and funds to support faculty who want to integrate this methodology into their courses.
