Over 500 students per year enrolled in Augsburg s Teacher Education Program. The program is particularly focused on education in the urban environment and the curriculum emphasizes multicultural education, active learning and the development of the classroom teacher. Augsburg has received service-learning grants from Lean and Serve America through AACTE which has enabled the Education Department to build a core of faculty committed to making service-learning an integral part of the curriculum. Integrating service-learning into Teacher Education at Augsburg has encompassed both using service-learning as a pedagogical technique in the higher education setting and preparing pre-service teachers to integrate service-learning into their repetoire of teaching strategies for use with K-12 students.

SLATE Subgrantee Institutions: Strengthening and Assessing the Integration of Service-Learning into Teacher Education
Augsburg College - MN, Minnesota
It takes great courage to take on challenges when everything tells you things are hopeless or you don't have all the answers at the ready. Minnesota Campus Compact embraces the leadership role in these tough times. That's heroic in my book.
