EDU Students Present Service Learning Project to the Rochester AM Rotary Club


On February 18, 2011, EDU students, Nicole Bernsten and Ashley Paluh, and Assistant Professor Tracy Wyant presented a Literacy Service Learning Project they participated in with School 58 to members of the Rochester AM Rotary Club.  Professor Wyant presented information about the role of Service Learning at MCC, while Nicole and Ashley described the process they took first graders through as they researched how birthdays are celebrated around the world.  The students continued to explain how EDU students wrote children’s books with the first graders based on the research and then performed their stories for the school, families and community members.  The Rotary AM Club appreciates students’ commitment to service in our community and celebrate EDU students’ efforts to celebrate literacy.  Nicole and Ashley were excellent Service Learning presenters and representatives of the service MCC students are doing in our community.
