FGCU Service-Learning

Students at Veterans Park Academy for the Arts read with Duke, a therapy dog from Beeley’s Paw Prints, as part of Lori Hammond’s Tales for Tails project.

FGCU Block 1 College of Education students apply concepts from their Professional Teaching Practice course by working directly with elementary students in the classroom.

Developed through Ms. Hammond’s participation in the Fall 2025 Service-Learning Faculty Academy, this project allows FGCU students to earn course credit while completing service-learning hours and building real-world teaching skills that support their future careers.
