Community-Engaged Learning
According to the Stanford Haas Center for Public Service, a community-engaged learning course is one that involves:
"engagement with a community that addresses societal needs not currently being met by governments, markets, or the independent sector; intentional integration of learning objectives and experience with/in the community; student preparation, ongoing reflection, and critical analysis; reciprocal benefits for students, community, and campus partners; opportunities to critically examine public issues or explore one's civic identity."
