While both volunteering and service learning are based on the notion that
you give your time free of charge to some community agency, service learning
is different from volunteering in one important sense. When you take
on a service project, you do so with the explicit understanding that your
activity will contribute to the learning that occurs in this course over
the semester because your professor has designed this activity with this
goal in mind.
