http://www.aacte.org/index.php?/Awards/Awards/best-practice-awards.html
This award is intended to recognize exemplary practice in the use of service-learning in teacher education. Growing out of the work of AACTE and the National Service-Learning in Teacher Education Partnership (NSLTEP), the award recognizes excellence and identifies useful models of service-learning in teacher education. Review and evaluation of award submissions will be performed by a panel of experts.
My own service-learning experience helped me to change my undergraduate major to social work. As a student worker with the program, I gained so many skills that helped me to be successful as a social worker and change agent after graduation. Now I help student workers develop these same skills and find the same passion for creating positive change that I have felt.
