KEEP TRACK OF YOUR TIME:
To record Service Learning time you must use the digital timesheet to log and document your service learning activity. This includes time you spend at or online with the service site, researching, gathering information, meetings regarding the project, and executing aspects of your service learning. The timesheet requires a student to enter the start and end time of each service experience as well as a description of the task performed. Completed time logs are due twice per semester at midterm, February 28, and by the final day of class, May 2 for review and verification. Any time submitted after these dates will not be considered for service learning credit. If you have any problems or questions, please reach out right away to ttjasper@loyno.edu.
