Abstract

This chapter provides context for the design of an experiential, service-learning-based capstone course that provides students with meaningful service-based learning experiences. Through experiential learning and publication opportunities, students develop transferable career development, communication, writing, and critical thinking skills. It is a related goal that students leave this course with improved self and collective efficacy and a fundamentally heightened awareness of their own potential to create positive change in their community.
