Service-Learning and Community Engagement Problem and Project Based Learning Information Systems Education and Curriculum Development

Abstract

Projects which compel students to work in team situations with community partners are one method for building so-called soft skills in computing majors. The use of team-oriented, community-based service learning projects can provide meaningful and productive experiences for students but must be selected and managed carefully by faculty. This paper discusses a sample of recent community-based projects at one campus of a large, multi-campus research university. Experiences with community-based projects involving Web design, systems design and implementation, and digital storytelling are discussed, as well as the benefits and challenges encountered in the projects.
