EDUC 401 A and B are community-engaged courses designed to support reflection for UW students tutoring in Seattle Public Schools. Students will be matched with a volunteer site and will volunteer on a weekly basis, reflecting on their experiential learning during our class meetings. If UW students are already mentoring or tutoring anywhere and would like to earn credit for those hours, you should inquire about a self-placement!
Credit is earned through attendance, assignments, and the completion of required service hours (to be fulfilled through tutoring at schools and professional development sessions).
*Pre/co-requisite for EDUC 401 is EDUC 260. Please email celecenter at uw.edu<mailto:celecenter at uw.edu> with questions.
