INLAND NORTHWEST SERVICE-LEARNING PARTNERSHIP
|
|
 |
Our History:
In the fall of 2000, EWU, Gonzaga University &
SFCC joined together to create the Inland Northwest Service-Learning
Partnership (INSLP). In 2001, both Whitworth College and Spokane
Public Schools joined the effort to consolidate regional service-learning
efforts. This collaboration combines our resources, allows us
to learn from each other, and helps create a comprehensive and
consistent vision for service-learning in the Inland Northwest.
Through this collaborative effort, our community agencies will
become true partners in service-learning, our faculty will have
the support of their peers at three institutions and from agencies
where their students serve, and our students will have greater
opportunities to learn from meaningful service. |

| Our INSLP meeting of April 2, 2001 yielded the
following shared principles or criteria:
- Expected Outcomes—civic engagement, social responsibility,
social justice
- Reciprocity—mutual benefit, collaborative, relationship-building
- Community Service—(often) a not-for-profit organization,
expressed need
- Reflection—course integration, critical thinking
and analysis
- Academic—for credit (?), experiential learning
