                        and content,

                        from content consumers
                        into content producers.

International Service-Learning
                 Learning from/with students from everywhere




Serve rural/remote communities
Communities without colleges
Partner with a small town or towns for a common frame
of reference



                       Partner with a national or international organization
                       on coordinated or long-term projects (Red Cross,
                       United Way, . . . )
Group projects rather than individual student service
Creating a collaborative product


Community Based Research
No more fictional case studies
Try starting here to orient students to community-focused learning


97% of community colleges deliver online courses
