    This course is an opportunity for students to demonstrate that they have achieved the learning goals established by South Central College's Computer Careers Department. This course integrates learning from the courses in the major with the courses from the rest of the student's academic experience. It requires the application of that learning to a service learning project that meets the community need of providing technology assistance to lower income families. Students will gain real world experience using their troubleshooting skills to fix, upgrade and refurbish donated computers. These computers are then recycled back into the community to no-profit organizations and families in need. Students will have an opportunity for reflection through assignments that promote greater understanding of computer concepts and themselves. Students are strongly encouraged to "pass it on," by sharing their computer skills and knowledge through a mentoring process of community members and volunteers. This course will provide an environment, where students can develop a good balance between their technical and "soft" skills. It will include concepts such as team dynamics, conflict management, thinking "outside the box", working with diverse populations and developing professional attitudes and habits.
