Topics:
Literacy, Civic and Political Engagement
Description : UNO students from Jeff Knapp's Social Work and Civic Engagement Course will work on literacy with Ms. Bielenberg's 3rd grade class from Field Club Elementary. UNO Students and Field Club students will create reading partnerships with the goal of having the 3rd graders build their confidence by reading out loud to the dogs at the Nebraska Humane Society. Student reading creates enrichment opportunities for the dogs, which reduces stress in the animals and may increase adoptability. This benefits the dogs, NHS, and the community overall. Students also raised funds for the Humane Society through a dog treat bake sale over $100 was raised this year.

Description : Reality Bites brings together students from UNO and Blackburn to learn about positive reinforcement and behavior modifications (BB) and provide similar experiential learning and data collection practice for UNO students. The Nebraska Humane Society benefits from this project because it provides valuable enrichment for animals in its care, works to make animals more adoptable, and furthers its mission of humane education to the general public.
