This course is the second of two courses in the Sophomores-Serve program and investigates the larger contexts and interconnectedness of individual service placements. A major component of this course is learning to present service-learning experiences and research findings to multiple audiences such as peers, community organizations, and policy-makers to effect change. Written and oral communication is strengthened through development of infographics, policy briefs, or white papers. Students reflect upon the service-learning experience and summarize lessons learned and consider building upon the knowledge and experiences gained during the courses to become an honors thesis or project.
