Member Spotlight: Germanna Community College

How do we engage students in meaningful, community service activities that reinforce classroom learning? Germanna Community College (GCC), in northern Virginia, makes a dedicated effort to engage in programs and support activities that help students connect classroom knowledge with community needs and service learning. GCC engineering students participated in the local CANstruction competition held January 18-21, 2013, in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The event was held as one of many National Day of Service events in tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. During the CANstruction competition, teams designed and built structures using canned food which was donated to the local food bank at the conclusion of the event. CANstruction offers an opportunity for students to learn about engineering science and design concepts in a fun, yet meaningful, manner in accordance with true active service learning.

Member Spotlight: Foothill College

By focusing simultaneously on strengthening the capacity of families, schools, and communities, we are able to build family engagement strategies that are systemic and integrated to ensure student success.
