Learning in Action - SEPTEMBER (4)

Learning in Action broadens students’ perspectives by engaging them in immersive and diverse experiences that foster practical wisdom and a sense of belonging. The experiences one engages in should support holistic development, preparing individuals to thrive in an interconnected world by cultivating lifelong learning, personal growth, and essential skills needed to flourish in and with one’s residential and global community.

HOW DO I KNOW WHAT COUNTS?
Experiences that meet the following criteria can be submitted for PATH credit to count towards the “Learning In Action” Track with a maximum monthly earning potential of 4 credits (1 credit per experience per date):

1. Fits into one of the established categories for Learning in Action:
   • Community Activism
   • Community Volunteerism
   • Employment
   • Leadership
   • Student Athlete
   • Student Organizations
   • Mentorship/Peer Education
   • Ministry
   • Coops, Internships, Studying Abroad
2. Demonstrates a minimum of 60 minutes of active in-person engagement
3. Is affiliated with the University of Dayton and connects with a UD faculty or staff member (Exception: Outside Employment)
4. Does not yield academic credit (Exception: Mini-Courses; Learning in Action experience must still be out of class)

HOW DO I SUBMIT AN EXPERIENCE FOR CONSIDERATION FOR PATH?
Students who wish to submit experiences will utilize and submit the form found at go.udayton.edu/learninginaction that asks them to identify a relevant category, state the associated experience they engaged in, report the date and time of the hour(s) of engagement and provide a reflective response that clearly demonstrates how learning was applied. Students will be required to provide contact information for the UD affiliated supervisor or advisor of the experience for verification purposes.

WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO KNOW?
Each month, upon submission, AVIATE staff will review responses to confirm that the experience meets the criteria and that the reflective responses are acceptable. If approved, PATH credit will be issued within 2 weeks. Students may submit the same experiences multiple
times in any given month however each submission must reflect a different date of engagement.

PLEASE NOTE: All experiences for each month must be submitted no later than the last calendar date of that month. No late submissions will be accepted. Badges for Learning in Action may take up to two weeks to be issued, while AVIATE staff review submissions and verify experiences.
