Abstract | At many colleges and universities, communication centers provide student peer tutoring to improve competencies in public speaking, interviewing, and other oral communication. By extending such consultations beyond helping students with class assignments, communication centers can offer intensive applied learning experiences. First, the essay examines a communication center's community engagement through mentoring people with developmental disabilities at a residential center. Ethnographic reflections of students combine with theories of critical and developmental pedagogy to reveal how this learning experience fosters teaching, learning, and social justice. Second, the authors provide a model for how communication centers can initiate and sustain undergraduate research. (As Provided). |
