Principles for Integrating Service Learning into the Curriculum
1. Academic credit is for learning, not for service.
2. Do not compromise academic rigor.
3. Set learning goals for students.
4. Establish criteria for the selection of community service placements.
5. Provide educationally sound mechanisms to harvest the community learning.
6. Provide support for students to learn how to harvest the community learning.
7. Minimize the distinction between the student’s community learning role and the classroom learning role.
8. Rethink the faculty instructional role.
9. Be prepared for uncertainty and variation in student learning outcomes.
10. Maximize the community responsibility orientation of the course.
Jeffrey Howard, Praxis I, 1993.
