    <p><span>Dedicated UMBC colleagues across departments, colleges, and
    disciplines having been digging deep into "applied learning
    experiences" and what means at UMBC. This includes identifying
    stakeholders, criteria, and a definition:</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p><blockquote><p><em><span>A UMBC applied learning
    experience engages students in reflectively developing knowledge, attitudes,
    skills, and values in the traditional classroom setting or in contexts beyond
    the classroom. Applied learning experiences promote career readiness and
    responsible citizenship. </span></em></p></blockquote>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><span>Recognized applied learning experiences include
    service-learning, which can be secured through The Shriver Center’s 096
    Community Service &amp; Learning Practicum. Dr. Thomas Penniston, Shriver
    Peaceworker Fellow Program alumnus, successfully completed his doctoral program
    in Language, Literacy and Culture on the benefits of service-learning through qualitative
    and quantitative research. To learn more, go to <a href="https://shrivercenter.umbc.edu/engaged-scholarships/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>https://shrivercenter.umbc.edu/engaged-scholarships/</span></a></span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><span>At the beginning of the 3<sup>rd</sup> week of the spring
    semester, some sites have filled, but others have great needs. With close to 70
    community partners (the majority being youth-based sites), we are seeking UMBC
    students to help partners build capacity and move their respective missions.</span></p>
