Rigorous learning (FCEL)Students will be able to: •Define the civic issue(s) or public problem(s) that are being discussed in the class.
•Describe how the disciplinary-specific knowledge or skills of the class are relevant to addressing the civic issue/public problem.
Plus at least 2 of the following:•Describe ways in which civic values and civic empathy influence possible approaches to public problem solving.
•Describe why working with diverse stakeholders and across-cultural approaches, ways of knowing, or kinds of expertise are central to addressing civic issues/public problem.
•Examine their willingness to contribute to a more just world.•Define and describe “community”, “public sector”, or “methods of social change” as they related to the civic issue/public problem.

Critical Reflectionenables students to…
◦ make meaning of their experiences in light of course learning objectives
◦ concretize their growing awareness of public problems and their capacity to be involved in the redress of injustice.

Describe1. Describe the civic issue at hand and why it is important both locally and in general.
2. Describe the context and mechanics of the community-engaged experience related to the civic issue◦ What, Where, When, Who◦ Consider all the stakeholders. Make sure you include scientists like yourself!◦ Briefly describe the mechanics.◦ What did you do? What did others do?

ExamineFor each category of learning (academic enhancement, civic learning, personal growth), explain what you learned, using the following prompts.
“I learned that…”◦ Express an important learning outcome.
“I learned this when…”◦ Connect the learning to specific activities that gave rise to it.
“This learning matters because…” ◦ Why does this matter to you (personally or professionally) and to the other stakeholders?
“In light of this learning I will…” ◦ Explain if you will change your future behaviors, and the associated benefits and challenges.

Articulate Learning in each categoryAcademic enhancementHow did your preparation and your specific experiences at FUSION increase your understanding of scientific concepts and skills like communication and critical thinking?
What academic (disciplinary, professional) skills did you use/should have used?
In what ways has your understanding of your academic skill-set changed with this experience?
Civic LearningDid the experience push you out of your homogenous cocoon? Explain.
Was the experience at Fusion one-way or bi-directional?
With this experience, have your views about the role of scientists, yourself included, in engaging with the lay-public changed?
In what ways did the diversity (broadly defined) found among your fellow BIO students and FUSION students contribute to or challenge your learning?
Personal GrowthWhat assumptions/expectations did you bring to the experience? Were your assumptions correct?
How did this experience make you feel about your role as a scientist? about your role as a member of society? about your abilities to work with diverse people?
In what ways did you succeed or fail in the situation?
What attributes/values did you demonstrate that contributed to the quality of the experience ?
