The 2022 Service Learning Showcase will be held during Research Week. UIW community members, that is faculty, students, and staff are invited to share podium presentations round table discussions, or posters submissions that demonstrate service learning and engaged scholarship. We seek best practices, examples, theories, scholarship, and grant writing skills related to all aspects of service learning. UIW has valued Engaged Scholarship. Ernest Boyer coined the term “Engaged Scholarship” to describe teaching and research that connect “the rich resources of the university to our most pressing social, civic, and ethical problems”

Service Learning at UIW includes community service which a) is required in the class or the program, b) is completed to better understand course or program content, c) reflects concern for the well-being of the community, and d) helps students to reflect, find meaning in their lives, and keep engaged to be good citizens in the future. To see examples of Showcase presentations for the last three years, visit the Faculty Service Learning Showcase site. To learn more, visit the Service and Service Learning Guidelines site.

1. Presentations may take the following forms:
   1. Podium presentations with time for questions.
   2. Poster presentations showing service learning experiences.
   3. Round table discussions with audiences interaction.
2. The body text (not to include contact information) of any submission must not exceed 500 words.
3. Submissions must be made via Submittable using link below.
4. All relevant sections must be completed. Incomplete submissions will not be accepted.

Each individual listed as author should have participated sufficiently in the work to take public responsibility for their contributions to the content (Clever, et al., 1997). More specifically, authorship should be credited to the individuals who contributed in all three areas of

1. Conception and design of the project or analysis and interpretation of data
2. Drafting the presentation or making critical revisions for significant intellectual content
3. Approval of final version to be presented

All three of the criteria should be met in order for an individual to be listed as an author. Individuals who contribute solely to general supervision, funding, or collecting data do not sufficiently satisfy the criteria for authorship (Clever, et al., 1997).

Contributors who do not meet the criteria for authorship should be listed in the acknowledgements of the final presentation. Including an author who has not contributed significantly to the work is considered a breach of appropriate authorship.
