Outdoor Recreation Class

OUTDOOR RECREATION CLASSES WORK TO DEVELOP A MUCH NEEDED NATURE TRAIL

Under the direction of Matt Schmuck, Assistant to Dean for Outdoor Programming and Outreach, FSU, the Fifth Street Nature Trail, located in the Coal Run Hallow area on 5th and Walnut streets, has come a long way in the past two years.

Educational Technology Class

For several semesters students enrolled in Dr. Valerie Morphew’s Instructional Technology course (EDUC 2201) were required to participate in a community service learning project. Students were asked to create five desktop publishing documents for community individuals or organizations. After completing their service, students were asked to reflect on their experience. The community benefited in many ways and the students further developed their technology skills. Schools, a fire department, and animal groups are examples of organizations that benefited from student service.
