We have a lot of fun in the Center for Academic Service-Learning and Research! Pictured here is our undergraduate and graduate student staff during Fall Training Week 2009. Everyone pose with your Buddy!
The College Headed and Mighty Proud (C.H.A.M.P.) program provides fourth grade students at six local elementary schools an inside look at what college is all about. Service-Learning students visit classrooms weekly for an hour for 10 weeks with an interactive and dynamic curriculum to motivate children to start thinking about higher education. The C.H.A.M.P. program includes a campus tour (pictured at right) and graduation ceremony - complete with Pomp and Circumstance - hosted by Azusa Pacific University.
The Servant Leadership Award is given each year to recognize undergraduates who have modeled a Christ-like leadership style in the community, within APU, internationally, and through academics. Three of this year's winners are pictured at left.
Service-Learning students in Art 310: Fundamental Art Experiences prepared a project for children and families that visited the APU campus for History Day L.A., part of a national program that encourages students to prepare posters, exhibits, papers, websites, performances, and documentary presentations on a historical theme. Undergraduate students shared about the innovation of the poitillism technique while helping guests shape tissue paper balls to replicate Georges Seurat's A Sunday on La Grande Jatte.
The beautiful finished product now hangs in an art gallery at Azusa Pacific University.
