Curriculum Structure
The ToE curriculum is structured around how MSU defines university-community engagement. At MSU outreach and engagement is:
• Scholarly • Community-based • Collaborative • Responsive • Capacity-building
![Page 6: Karen McKnight Casey Service-Learning and Civic Engagement Michigan State University caseyk@msu.edu Michigan Campus Compact Network Meeting March 22, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e435503460f94b35d97/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Key Feature: Critical Reflection
The modules encourage students to reflect critically on the content. They also provide students with concrete examples that illustrate abstract concepts and then ask students to come up with their own real-life examples.
When documented and critiqued, this critical reflection can also be used as assessment.

Relevancy to AssessmentConsistency of content lends itself to a variety of
measurements: • Individual comprehension of content can be measured via
quizzes
• Survey assessment at the end of each module provides an intra- as well a cross-institutional dataset re: student learning. (Several institutions now using)
• Critical reflection components lend themselves to measuring gains in critical thinking when applied to rubric, key words, pre- and post-writing exercises, etc.
• Utilization of first-year/freshmen honors seminar to learn, apply and evaluate led to revisions
• Faculty surveys provide additional & different info. & perspectives.
