At each of these meetings, the host campus has been asked to share 15-30 minutes of information about their service learning program. This might be a quick program overview, a student reading, a faculty member sharing specific course information, or anything that the college would like to share with the group.
The format for each meeting will be: 15-30 minutes for host campus information, 60 minutes for the main topic as listed above, and 5 minutes for other business and announcements.
Service Learning Dialogue Day
Thursday, February 29, 1996, at Scottsdale Community College
Ocotillo Retreat
Monday-Tuesday, May 20-21, 1996 - location and times will be available later in the spring semester
Ideas and Recommendations
We hope that attendance at this year's meetings will not be
limited to just those people on the Ocotillo Committee for
Service Learning, but rather that you look upon these sessions
as an opportunity to provide staff development for many people
on your campus who are involved in service learning.
We may need to have smaller groups of people working on
specific topics outside of the times listed above. There still
seems to be lots of interest in topics such as a faculty/staff
service day, professional growth (ETL) classes in SL, an
administrator's forum, etc. If you are interested in any of
those topics, please notify the committee chairs.
