Two professors at ULM are working to create service-learning projects in their classes that not only provide extensive civic engagement but also rigorous scholarly training. They employ different methodologies for service-learning but pursue similar goals and outcomes. This presentation describes their pedagogical designs for community-based writing and health-related service-learning projects as well as their goals and outcomes for scholarship and service. Their different teaching methods are presented to show the different ways that community-based writing and health-related service work can be implemented. Significantly, both professors are working to achieve opportunities for higher scholarly inquiry with civic application.
