About this Unit
Experiential Learning in Communities (ELC) is a unit in which students come to understand the value of service learning within the university student community as part of the Equity Buddies Support Network. As this unit explores a service learning approach to teaching and learning it includes a participation component which comprises a combination of lectures, tutorials, debriefing group meetings and peer mentoring partnerships. Enrolment in ELC is open to first, second and third year students. Students will develop skills in pedagogy and practice within the unit through supporting fellow students’ learning experiences and transition to university. The unit develops students’ understandings about communities of practice, peer learning, interpersonal and intercultural communication, meta-cognition, reflection and the reflection process, and academic literacy.
