4th Annual SALSA Service-Learning Workshop
Reach Out: From Impact to Assessment
April 20, 2012
9:00 am – 3:00 pm
Saint Francis University, Loretto, PA
DiSepio Center for Rehabilitation

Call for Presenters
Submissions due April 6, 2012

Open to the community, the workshop is designed to unite community partners, students, faculty, and staff interested in learning more about service-learning and civic engagement.  We anticipate a wide array of presentations that focus on service-learning, impact, assessment, and civic engagement.  For this reason, SALSA invites you to submit a presentation proposal for its annual workshop.

Workshops or presentations are 50 minutes.  They should be designed to look at different facets of impact and/or assessment.  Presenters will offer solutions about how their work, research, program initiatives, courses, and partnerships move us toward a more engaged society/institution.  Presentations should be designed to analyze and generate conversation addressing various dimensions of service and engagement.  Extra consideration will be given for workshops that engage the audience.

Presenters will be chosen on an ongoing basis in order to post the program on our website.  The final deadline for submission is March 30, 2012.  The workshop planning committee, made up of SALSA members, will review and select proposals based on applicability, creativity, and clarity.  Accepted presenters will be notified by April 6, 2012.

On behalf of the Workshop Committee, we encourage you to submit a proposal (http://www.mtaloy.edu/salsa/) that will inspire workshop attendees and help them to learn about Impact and Assessment of Service-Learning.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
