While service-learning is not a new phenomenon, this “civically-engaged” experiential learning pedagogy has increased in popularity and usage in educational settings in recent years. Additionally, community-engaged experiential learning can be utilized to provide meaningful community service opportunities that simultaneously teach civic responsibility and encourage life-long civic engagement, while also providing opportunities for significant real-life, hands-on learning of important skills and vital social understanding for Millennial students. This presentation will present an overview of the current literature and new assessment data on engaging Millennials through experiential learning.
