A Carnegie Foundation report on undergraduate education in America claims, “A good college affirms that service to others is a central p= art of education.” Service-learning, an educational experience allowing students to participate in solutions to identified community or university needs, promotes further understanding of course content and a sense of civic responsibility. The community-based learning fosters moral, cognitive, and ethical understanding of social issues and people. It connects academic study with community service through structured reflection in three areas: enhanced academic learning, leadership development, and democratic participation. As such it can effectively supplement classroom academics for indigenous students in their critical thinking, problem solving, and civic and community responsibility. For example, reservation projects designed with participation, reflective research papers, and service document learning experiences. Diverse projects meet the variety of learning styles, cultural differences, and varied disciplines as well as build on indigenous knowledge and equip students with traditional skills. Through t= ask engagement, service learning offers a practicum for the theoretic curricula= by involving indigenous students in their communities’ social and economic enterprises.
