Empowering the Sport Management Student Through Reflection and Service
Traditional classes are usually driven by "teacher-talk" depending heavily on textbooks for the structure. However, management is rarely as simple as the application of standard information. The question becomes: How can sport management curriculums bridge the gap between theory and application of information? This interactive session will enable participants to gain information on implementing service learning projects through effective community partnerships, and assessing the effectiveness of a service-learning project from multiple perspectives. We will use examples of projects that have been implemented in two undergraduate sport management programs to illustrate the effectiveness of service learning across the sport management curriculum.
