The serivce-learning research and development center will contact all UC Berkeley Deans and Department Chairs to identify faculty who teach or who are considering teaching service-learning courses. The Center will then contact all identified faculty to offer support for their service-learning activities. Service-learning resources available through the service-learning center, the Cal Corps Public Service Center and the Office of Educational Development include consultation on curriculum development and assessment; customized lists of relevant community agencies at which students can be placed; service-learning instructional minigrants of up to $1,000; and opportunities to network with other service-learning faculty through seminars and forums. They will utilize the WRCCC minigrant to fund efforts to initiate or expand service-learning for the entire UC system, UC Berkeley will lead a system-wide effort among the nine UC campuses to develop a compendium of service-learning activities throughout the system.

Academic Service Learning at the University of California at Berkeley
University of California at Berkeley - CA, California
Campus Compact connects the campus with the city formally and informally, which is very useful in a variety of ways, from name recognition for service-learning and the university to developing and funding a new position that will foster relationships between schools, universities, and city offices.
