The Joys and Challenges of Community Engaged Learning
· October 6, 2020
Invited Talk
Stanford University,
Community engaged learning can take many forms, from service-learning classes to stand alone community-based research. The core challenge is to ethically and equitably meet the needs of the students, faculty, and partners. Universities have long used communities as subjects of research for academic advancement, but integrating community work into student coursework such that the community partners are co-designers and co-leaders of the experience is a more just and sustainable approach. Community engaged learning also provides emotional connections that build deep and enduring learning in student participants and leverages community knowledge that might be unknown to an academic PI. I have been doing community engaged learning for 20 years both with courses at Duke and with a community partner in rural Kenya and it has been one of my most fulfilling professional experiences.
