Service-Learning
Welcome to Service-Learning
The Casper College Service-Learning Program was established in the fall of 2006 to assist in the nurturing of a culture of service, citizenship and civic responsibility in the academic setting for our students. Service-Learning is a unique form of experiential education that links community service and academic study. One of the most effective educational pedagogies, this method of learning allows the student to participate in service/civic experiences that are:
- Integrated into the curriculum
- Meet the needs of the community
- Provide structured time for reflection and
- Help to foster civic responsibility.
This approach provides a continuous learning cycle resulting in multiple benefits to the students, faculty, institution and community.
At present, Casper College offers courses in multiple fields of study that provide an opportunity for the student to practice academic skills in a service environment. Casper College is dedicated to expanding its Service-Learning offerings on campus as it builds partnerships for the future with multiple service agencies within the community and educational system.
