Community engaged learning can be facilitated through one of our three pathways: direct service, civic engagement and community research.

Direct Service experiences often involve working directly with community residents to meet an immediate need. Examples of direct service include, but are not limited to: volunteering to serve meals at a homeless shelter, using academic knowledge to develop an electronic food-monitoring database for a food pantry, serving as a mentor or tutor in a local school or youth development program, cleaning up the banks of the Ogden River, or coaching a city youth sport.

Civic engagement experiences often involve raising awareness about issues of public concern and working more systematically through both political and non-political processes to create change. Examples of civic engagement include, but are not limited to: attending organized discussions about pollution; community organizing; writing a letter to an elected official; engaging others in the process of deliberative democracy; or producing information about community issues.

Community research experiences often involve gathering information with and for community organizations to solve a pressing community problem or create change. Examples of community research include, but are not limited to: community needs assessment survey; water quality or scientific assessment; or program evaluation for non-profit organizations.

Regardless of the type of community engaged learning experience, students are expected to acquire four CEL outcomes through their experiences: civic knowledge, civic skills, civic values, and civic action. Student learning outcomes, definitions, and measurement rubrics can be found at www.weber.edu/CCEL.
