, students are required to complete a reflection after each S-L experience.Students are asked to reflect on observations, discrepancies between their expectations andexperiences, and potential applications to their coursework. These reflections are completedindividually and in a written format, which allows students to process their own experiences andto access their responses at any point in the semester.This metacognition distinguishes service and S-L. In actively recalling and analyzing theirservice experience, the students can examine and alter their thought processes and revise theirteaching and design strategies accordingly. In this way, students’ service experiences informsubsequent practice and real-world application.Structure, Routine, and

Liaisons discussed their relationshipswith their partner high schools, resources through e4usa, and education and outreach at theiruniversities. Two coders analyzed the focus group transcripts using an inductive approach toallow for emergent codes and themes. We found five main themes: Challenges, Excitements,Further Involvement, Suggestions, and University Benefits. Our findings provide direction on thebest way to support current and future liaisons.
