The Center for Service-Learning (CSL) at IU East

Engaging students with the community through tutoring and mentoring programs for K-12 students

Abstract

The Center for Service-Learning (CSL) at IU East works with 20-80 service-learning students every semester from course-based assignments, including students from Education M300 Teaching in a Pluralistic Society, as well as students in Criminal Justice, Psychology, or Spanish courses. We meet with each student to find a service-learning experience that fits with their schedule, location, and course objectives. Students’ experiences in the community often lead to new partnerships in the small towns in the wider IU East service area.
