<b><span style="color:black">Designing Service-Learning Into Your Course</span></b><span style="color:black"> Are you interested in service-learning, but aren’t sure where to begin? Service-learning is an integral part of new initiatives at Ohio State such
as the Second Year Transformational Experience Program (STEP), and service-learning courses can also qualify to be counted as GE Open Option elective hours for undergraduates. The Service-Learning Initiative and UCAT invite you to join us for a session on
the basics of </span>service-learning on September 11<sup>th</sup>, 2013 at 3pm in 150 Younkin Hall. This workshop will help faculty and departmental staff understand what service-learning is and what goes into
<span style="color:black">planning and developing a service-learning course offering. We’ll also discuss examples of current courses at Ohio State, and tell you how the Service-Learning Initiative can support your
</span>efforts. Register here: <a href="http://ucat.osu.edu/participate/events/designing-service-learning-into-your-course">
