Well, it’s almost September and for many that means one thing: it’s back to school time. The September issue of Family Circle Magazine looks at back to school issues through a service-learning lens, discussing the many positive academic outcomes to students who participate (http://www.parents.com/teens-tweens/school-college/school-college/volunteering-through-school/). This is a great piece for spreading the word about service-learning so give it a look. The beginning of the school year is a great opportunity to start integrating service-learning into your coursework or community-based programs or to further strengthen and develop the service-learning you’re already using. Check out our SLICE resources to get ideas about integrating service-learning into the classroom or send us your own service-learning lesson plans, syllabi, and project ideas for us to add. http://servicelearning.org/slice/index.php.
This month also sees Constitution Day and Citizenship Day on Sept 17th. Every year this day is observed to commemorate the signing of the US Constitution on September 17, 1787 and to “recognize all who, by coming of age or by naturalization, have become citizens.” The US Department of Education requires all educational institutions that receive Federal funds to hold an educational program on the United States Constitution on September 17 of each year. This day provides an excellent opportunity to engage students in service-learning and civic education. Check out the Featured Library Items section of this newsletter to see some of the great resources we have to help you get started.
 We're just 45 days away from the 2nd Annual National Learn & Serve Challenge October 6-12, 2008. Now is the perfect time for you to join your peers from around the country to shine the spotlight on service-learning in your local schools and community. Participate by hosting a service-learning t-shirt or button day, presenting to your local school board and/or city council, including a service-learning update in your newsletter or website, showing the Bring Learning to Life PSA to local community leaders, or setting up a service-learning booth at upcoming events like football games. Whatever you do, be sure to register your Challenge event by Friday, September 5, 2008 and become eligible to win an official “Learn & Serve Challenge Gift Bag,” which includes a variety of items from the Learn & Serve Challenge Online Store you can use to celebrate service-learning in your own school or community. Register today! http://www.learnandservechallenge.org/acceptthechallenge.php
Finally this month, NSLC is delighted to announce that the Center for Service and Learning at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis has joined the NSLC team as our new Program Advisor for Research Capacity.

Featured Program Advisor: IUPUI
This month, we are delighted to introduce a new Program Advisor relationship in a new area for NSLC. To support the continuing development of a rigorous knowledge base for the service-learning field, we have selected the Center for Service and Learning at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis as our new Program Advisor for Research Capacity. The IUPUI Center for Service and Learning Director, Robert G. Bringle and Associate Director, Julie Hatcher, will be leading this work. Over the next year, with the collaboration of the Center for Service and Learning, NSLC will launch a new Research Capacity Hub which will house a range of tools for conducting rigorous service-learning research, evaluation, and assessment. Please join us in welcoming Robert, Julie, and the rest of the IUPUI Center for Service and Learning staff, to the NSLC community.
 The mission of the Center for Service and Learning is to involve students, faculty, and staff in service activities that mutually benefit the campus and the community. This mission is achieved through the Office(s) of Community Service, Community Work-Study, Neighborhood Partnerships, and Service Learning. A new program initiative, the Service Learning Research Collaborative, supports research by convening scholars, providing resources, and disseminating information to further advance the knowledge and good practice of service-learning in higher education. The Center supports the campus mission of IUPUI to promote excellence in civic engagement.
See below for more information about Robert Bringle and Julie Hatcher. To learn more about the Center for Service and Learning and all of the NSLC Program Advisors, visit

Robert G. Bringle, Director of IUPUI’s Center for Service and Learning, has been involved in the development, implementation, and evaluation of educational programs directed at talented undergraduate psychology majors, high school psychology teachers, first-year students, and the introductory psychology course. As a social psychologist, he is widely known for his research on jealousy and close relationships. His work as Director of the IUPUI Center for Service and Learning has resulted in numerous national recognitions for his campus and himself. For his scholarly journal articles, chapters, and books on service-learning, Robert was awarded the Ehrlich Faculty Award for Service Learning and he was recognized at the International Service-Learning Research Conference for his outstanding contributions. He was the Volunteer of the Year in 2001 for Boys and Girls Clubs of Indianapolis. The University of the Free State, South Africa, awarded him an honorary doctorate for his scholarly work on civic engagement and service-learning.

Free Webinar from Higher Education Program Advisor Campus Compact
Learn and Serve America's National Service-Learning Clearinghouse (NSLC) and Campus Compact, the NSLC Program Advisor for Higher Education, are pleased to announce the upcoming free webinar: Educating for Democracy: Developing Students’ Political Skills, Knowledge, and Dispositions through Service-Learning, Wednesday, September 10, 2008, 4:00-5:15 pm Eastern time.
Service-learning courses—including those supported by Learn and Serve America and thus prohibited from supporting partisan events and advocacy—can contribute a great deal to the health of our democracy by deliberately engaging students in ways that develop their political skills, knowledge, and dispositions. At the heart of service-learning (and higher education more generally) is the imperative of open inquiry. Engagement in dialogue and action that is nonpartisan, includes multiple perspectives, and requires critical thinking and deliberation about pressing issues not only increases students’ capacity and motivation to participate in public life (as documented in the Carnegie Foundation’s Political Engagement Project), but also responds to students’ desire for an alternative to polarization and “spin” (as documented in the CIRCLE report, Millennials Talk Politics).
The presenters will share key findings from the Carnegie Foundation’s Political Engagement Project, specific examples of activities that can be incorporated into service-learning courses without violating CNCS regulations, and suggestions and resources related to developing faculty members’ capacity to facilitate such activities. Please join us for this important conversation.

New Publication from Tribal Advisor Eagle Rock School
The NSLC Library collection now has a new resource from our Tribal Program Advisor John Guffey:
Embracing an Indigenous Understanding of Service-Learning
NWIC Second Summit on Indigenous Service-Learning Keynote Address by John Guffey. Service-learning, a timeless indigenous approach to teaching and learning, takes its lead from two primary values: interdependence and self-awareness. In recent years service-learning has found its way into mainstream education in America, where it has come face-to-face with enduring principles of the west: individualism and competition. Service-learning is a way of linking human experience with understanding, compassion, harmony and relationship-building. If used for other purposes, this approach loses its meaning and effectiveness. The indigenous roots of service-learning must be recognized and nurtured, and the gap between "school" and "community" must be bridged if we are to fully utilize and preserve this form of education for our own and future generations.

Standards and Indicators for Effective Service-Learning Practice
In April 2008, the National Youth Leadership Council released the K-12 Service-Learning Standards for Quality Practice. These standards grew out of a need to update conventional wisdom about quality practice as reflected in the Essential Elements of Service-Learning. This fact sheet describes the standards and their corresponding indicators, as well as providing a short summary of supporting research.
http://www.servicelearning.org/instant_info/fact_sheets/k-12_facts/standards/ |

| People are Talking About... |
| |
This month the k-12 email list saw a discussion of the pros and cons of Professional Learning Communities and their effectiveness in student learning. Much input regarding the subject was relayed, including information about available resources on the topic, and where these resources can be found (for example, in professional development literature). The general conclusion reached among discussants was that PLCs are indeed effective for professional developments by promoting collegiality, networking, support and interdependence; however, on the downside, if not implemented correctly, PLCs have the potential to perpetuate incorrect or “false” information. To read member comments concerning the effectiveness of PLCs or to contribute your own, see: http://lists.etr.org/read/messages?id=91063.

Being American! Civic Participation and the Service Learning Curriculum
The Being American! Curriculum incorporates a number of accepted best practices in the areas of civics and government education, service-learning, and character education. In addition to a focus on traditional content knowledge, the lessons promote the development of citizenship skills and civic commitment. When implemented at a maximum level, including a service project, it contributes to the important task of building essential civic character, such as support for the common good, inclusion, and liberty.

Wayne State University Students Bring Heart Back to Downtown Detroit through Service Learning (A Learn and Serve America Grantee)
 Wayne State University (WSU), celebrated for its applied curriculum, is taking another step in integrating its practical education with its commitment to the community through its service learning initiative, CommunityEngagement@Wayne. One of the latest projects in service learning at Wayne involves a Public Relations COM 7140 course crafted to enrich 24 graduate-level PR students’ academic and practical skills.
The graduate level students are working to develop press kits, coordinate events and garner media attention for Detroit non-profits, including Alternatives for Girls, Covenant House Michigan, Southwest Detroit Development Collaborative (SDDC), Southwest Detroit Environmental Vision, as well a team helping to increase the visibility of the communication studies major at Wayne.
These organizations have found support through CommunityEngagement@Wayne, which is a service learning program dedicated to advancing students’ efforts in the causes of these organizations ranging from drug and sexual abuse prevention amongst young girls to nurturing Detroit’s natural resources and environment. The initiative identifies courses that have a practical component and assist eager instructors in implementing real-life skill building experiences. For example, from the nearly $650,000 WSU has raised toward this ambitious project the COM 7140 course was awarded a portion to support their efforts in establishing community partners as clients needing public relations consultation.
With troubling economic times in Michigan, it is the ideal opportunity for university professors to facilitate the relationship between struggling organizations and enthusiastic students to work hand-in-hand educating one another by fusing the academic with the practical. Organizers avoid costly expenses and enjoy early access to developing professionals, while eager students hone their skills for the workplace.
 The COM 7140 graduate students will continue to assist local area non-profits by supplying a variety of public relations services through the end of the semester. Students hope to equip the organizations with PR resources that will sustain their organizational needs for the future while contributing to their mission.
"I wanted to be a part of something from the beginning and was especially interested in contributing a strategic plan that will be ongoing and adaptive as the organization grows and changes," said Anne Sesko, graduate student working with SDDC. "I knew that this kind of collaboration existed, but did not realize what an impact it could have."
In addition to students, many WSU instructors believe the service learning initiative enhances classroom learning through real-life skill building, which ultimately provides a competitive advantage for participants.
"Service learning assists students in putting academic skills to practical use while recognizing their value as a contributor to their academic, professional and social community prior to formally entering the workforce,"says Donyale Griffin, professor in the Department of Communication and graduate instructor of the PR Campaigns course. "Students are being cultivated as citizens and professionals simultaneously."
 Such efforts are ongoing campus-wide and COM 7140 is only one example of how this philosophy is being translated across the curriculum at Wayne.
Surveys were disseminated to participants involved in service learning projects to gauge their awareness of service learning or community engagement opportunities in the Detroit metropolitan area and the impact it had on their lives and aspirations before and after taking part in their selected service learning initiative.
Since its inception in 2005, CommunityEngagement@Wayne has promoted Wayne State University’s dedication to its local, urban environment. The initiative provides tangible benefits to communities and unique opportunities for students to apply newly learned skills in a real-world context. It supports the service learning endeavors of WSU instructors and students and welcomes innovative community partnering. Wayne State University is one of the nation’s pre-eminent public research universities in an urban setting and offers more than 350 academic programs through 11 schools and colleges to nearly 33,000 students. For more information, visit www.wayne.edu.
For more information about this project, please contactDr.Elizabeth Barton at Community Engagement@Wayne, Wayne State University,2100 Undergraduate Library, Detroit, MI 48202, elizabeth.barton@wayne.edu- http://www.communityengagement.wayne.edu/. |
