Teaching Through Community Based Projects

In our 40 years of teaching experience we have come to the conclusion that many students are unaware of the cultural differences and social
issues in their communities.

To accomplish this, it is important to understand the meaning of contextualization, field trips and community-based instruction... We pride ourselves on:

- Getting students into diverts communities

- Developing skills that students can gain from a community-based project (Teamwork - Critical Thinking - Interpersonal Skills - feeling of build buildings).

The following are community projects undertaken by the departments students.
