OHIO faculty, staff invited to panel discussion on building community-engaged courses

Ohio University’s Center for Community Impact will present a special event on April 10 focused on building community-engaged courses.

Community-engaged teaching is a journey—and moving from intention to implementation can be one of the hardest steps. This spring panel will create space for faculty who have completed community-engaged teaching training to pause, reflect and engage in candid conversation about what it really takes to launch a service-learning course.

OHIO faculty and staff are invited to join Center for Community Impact Faculty Fellow Dr. Jacqueline Yahn and a panel of faculty who have successfully integrated service learning into their courses as they share practical insights, lessons learned and honest reflections on challenges, successes and impact.

This session invites participants to ask questions and explore concrete next steps—leaving with greater clarity, confidence and support to move their ideas forward. 

The faculty panelists for the “Building Your Community-Engaged Course: Reflect, Connect, Reimagine” event will be:

• Jim Strode, Associate Dean, Undergraduate Programs and Assessment; O’Bleness Professor of Sports Administration, Ohio University College of Business
• Dr. Tiffany Arnold, PhD, MED, Associate Professor of Instruction, Ohio University College of Health Sciences and Professions
• Jerry Miller, Ph.D., Professor, Director of Political Communication Certificate Program, Ohio University Scripps College of Communication
• Alicia Castro, Assistant Professor of Instruction and Athens Campus Undergraduate Program Coordinator, Ohio University College of Health Sciences and Professions
• Julia Paxton, Professor of Economics, Ohio University College of Arts and Sciences
