Service learning is a teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility and strengthen communities. | Students are encouraged through civic responsibility and accountability within the institution to broaden their perspectives and understanding of the world, and to seek ways to demonstrate a commitment to the local Gwinnett community through awareness and solutions that impact on a global level. | By creating opportunities for scholarly interaction and civic exchanges, the College and its community partners develop successful relationships and programming to strengthen community involvement, activities and citizen participation. |
