SOE Faculty Make a Big Splash in the Academic Service Learning Pool!

Three SOE faculty members were among nine across the entire campus to be selected by the Integrated Learning and Community Partnership Office to receive Academic Service-Learning (ASL) Course Designations for their Fall 2012 courses. The designation also comes with a $500 stipend. 

The SOE winners were associate professors Stein Brunvand, Chris Burke, and Gail Luera. [See the UM-Dearborn Reporter for a related story.] 

Additionally, SOE assistant professor Danielle DeFauw was selected to be one of the eight UM-Dearborn ASL Faculty Fellows for the 2012-2013 academic year. Fellows participate in monthly teaching circles consisting of training, design, evaluation, and reflection while working towards the planning of an ASL course for the following academic year.

Please join me in congratulating these SOE faculty members for their interest in providing students with an innovative, experiential learning experience!
