central component of the value for the community partners. Thisdiffers from many of the early adopters of service-learning, where the service was typicallydefined as time spent within the community or in the partner organization [1]. Nearly 90% of thestudents studied in Where’s the Learning in Service-Learning [2] were from placement-basedapproaches. It is not surprising, therefore, that many of the models for community-engagedlearning were designed with placement-based approaches in mind. While such models can beuseful in engineering, they lack the context of the project experience that adds dimensions notaddressed in earlier models. A project deliverable is central to many engineering experiences,while the project process, including activities
