This project included three components:

1. Community Service-Learning Faculty Development Grants – Community Service-Learning Development Grants were available to re-design and integration of service-learning pedagogy into existing courses. The Service-Learning/Experiential Education Advisory Committee established criteria and standards to review the applications and select the recipients for these faculty development awards. One hundred percent of the Community Service-Learning Faculty Development grants were awarded. Six faculty members received grants, impacting approximately eighty students who are participating in these service-learning courses.

2. Faculty Development Workshops and Training Support – Two Faculty Development Workshops were offered. One that helped support faculty members in understanding how to re-design and integration of service-learning pedagogy into existing courses. The second workshop focused on the development of community partnerships. Grant funds also supported faculty members in attending service-learning workshops, conferences, and institutes out of the area. Each faculty development workshop had an average attendance of 8-12 faculty members, staff and students from our campus. Funding support for attendance for service-learning conferences will be completely utilized at the end of the 1999-2000 academic year.

3. Specific Activities to Dissemination of Service-Learning Materials HSU faculty, staff and students participated in the following presentations at regional and national conferences during year 1999-2000:
