The National Service-Learning Clearinghouse describes service learning as a teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen communities.This assignment is designed to get you to think of anthropology as more than a textbook, online tutorials, and lectures.
