ICC Faculty Fellows Class of 08-09 Minimize

The 2008-2009 Indiana Campus Compact (ICC) Faculty Fellows are currently conducting a study to explore how service-learning is used in the promotion and tenure process across Indiana.  The project is based on feedback that was received from member institutions that ultimately led to the ICC strategic plan and one section that calls for ICC to “advocate for campuses to recognize service-learning as part of the scholarship of teaching and learning.”  To help accomplish this objective, the study will decipher how service-learning is used in the promotion and tenure process in Indiana and will offer future recommendations.
