For Faculty and Schedulers
It is vital that as a university, ASU track the number of course sections that include service learning as a component of their academic work, the number of students who participate in service learning, and the number of hours each student contributes to the community. ASU captures this information using class note 0303 on the schedule of classes. This data is used in several capacities including helping students find service learning courses; applying for university-wide designations for campus involvement, civic engagement, and community service; and to disseminate resources to instructors interested in utilizing service learning as a teaching strategy.
COURSE SCHEDULERS
It is necessary to add class note 0303 to all courses that contain a mandatory service learning component. Please proceed as follows:
- Identify all faculty teaching a course with a service learning component.
- Collect a completed Service Learning Class Note Form for each qualifying class from the professor or instructor (electronic document preferred).
- Complete the scheduler section of each class note form (contact information and class number)
- Email completed class note form to Rocitsa Doncheva (preferred) or fax to 480-727-7065, or campus mail to MC 5511, attention: Rocitsa Doncheva, Administrative Associate.
- Add class note 0303 to each section. (For technical assistance with adding the note, contact Classroom Scheduling (rooms@asu.edu or 480-965-6578)
FACULTY
The class note for service learning (0303) is designated for courses that include a mandatory community outreach service component. Outreach must correlate to the curriculum and include service learning reflection assignments, discussions, and/or activities in which students make connections between course curriculum and their service to the community. To add the service learning class note (0303) to your course:
- Identify the sections that contain the service learning component.
- Complete the Service Learning Class Note Form
- Email the form to your department scheduler (electronic document preferred).
