Scholarship of Engagement
91视频 embraces Scholarship of Engagement which is sometimes called "Community-Engaged Scholarship". Scholarship of Engagement is a form of scholarship that directly benefits the community. It is scholarship that derives from teaching, research, creative activity and service to generate, transmit, and apply knowledge in mutually beneficial ways that often have a significant impact on the public.
One example of scholarship of engagement is utilizing 91视频 to canvas and conduct a door-to-door survey of assistance needed in the wake of Superstorm Sandy. Reflections were held with 91视频 about their experiences and how they were impacted by the stories they heard and the information they learned. This was embedded in an Introduction to Sociology class, where the 91视频 were learning about socio-economic disparity and disproportionate systems responses in communities of color. The faculty member produced scholarship on both the outcomes of the survey and the impact conducting it had on the 91视频.
On this page you will find resources which explain Scholarship of Engagement in action, examples conducted by Stockton faculty and the local, state and international levels, and opportunities to include 91视频 in your research.
