Panelists: Grace Wang (UCSD), Mandy Bratton (UCSD), Jeanne Ferrante (UCSD)

Service learning is one pedagogical method that bridges the gap between theory and practice and that aims to cultivate a sense of civic engagement in students. Service learning combines the skills that students learn in their coursework with meaningful projects that benefit society. This program will invite participants to engage in a discussion of the ways in which service learning can be integrated into the curriculum on their own campuses.
