Returning to the definition of Community Engaged Teaching and Learning (CETL) by Butin (2007), these courses link “academic work with community-based engagement within a framework of respect, reciprocity, relevance, and reflection.”   

But how do we go about doing this?  Relevance and Reflection are the tools that are used the support students to connect their academic and community learning, and Respect and Reciprocity are how we go about engaging with our community partners. 

In addition to these considerations, how do we assess the outcomes of our engaged courses and how to we adjust community engagement for online teaching?
