Students will create personalized goals for their service, complete entry and exit surveys to assess their experiences, and write brief weekly reflection reports. They will serve one hour per week for 12 weeks in addition to preparation time and attend three one-hour meetings as a group for orientation and group discussions with supervisor. Attendance reports from internship placement supervisors will be sent to the in-service language faculty member supervising the Language Activity in Service. In addition, students will complete a related final project highlighting the linguistic, cultural, and professional competencies that they gained during service.
