Faculty Engagement
Connecting your course to community
The VT Engage team is available to provide assistance to instructors who teach courses with a community learning component in a variety of ways:
- Consulting with faculty on course design and syllabus development,
- Facilitating faculty and student connections with community partners, and
- Developing orientation, reflection, and assessment strategies that enhance the impact of community engaged learning on the student experience.
Please contact Jessie Baty McMillan, Assistant Director for Service Learning at jbatymcmillan@vt.edu or 540-231-1113. Jessie can assist in thinking through options for you, your students, and your community partners.
