This paper describeswhat was done in both classes and reflections from both students and instructors.IntroductionService-learning and community-based learning are proven pedagogical approaches used across multipledisciplines and educational levels to bridge teaching and community engagement (Billig, 2000; Kuh,2008). Over the course of decades, research demonstrates the benefits of service-learning (SL) to studentlearning (Warren, 2012), satisfaction (Drinkard & Tontodonato, 2019), engagement, and retention(Bringle, Hatcher & Muthiah, 2010).
