Scholarship and Honors & Awards

Dr. Ann Marie Daehn is a Professor of Music in the Judith Enyeart Reynolds College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities and is the director of the Missouri State University Opera Theatre, where she combines artistry and advocacy through her innovative opera outreach and service-learning courses. A classically trained mezzo-soprano, Dr. Daehn is passionate about making opera accessible to all ages. Through partnerships with local schools and community organizations, she empowers her students to create and perform original operas that engage young audiences and promote arts education. Her work fosters musical excellence and a deep sense of civic responsibility and connection. As she explains, “What I have learned, and I think what the students have learned too, is that what you do, what your special talents are, even if it's music, can be a force for good in the community.”

Dr. Daehn’s commitment to service-learning spans over 13 years, integrating service-learning into courses every semester. Her work was one of the featured community-engaged courses/community partnerships in the most recent Carnegie recertification application for MSU as a Community-engaged University. Missouri State University has a long-standing partnership with Springfield Public Schools due to MSU’s Teacher Education program and other community collaborations. These initiatives include working together on the Community Focus Report, addressing public health issues, homelessness, food insecurity, school board issues, and building safe and healthy communities. The partnerships developed through Dr. Daehn’s courses benefit both MSU students and those in Springfield Public Schools, addressing access to arts and culture for individuals, especially children and youth.

Dr. Daehn’s dedication to service-learning has enriched her students’ educational experiences and made a significant positive impact on the community. Her innovative approach ensures that opera is not only an art form but also a tool for social change and community engagement.

Azaria Hogans is an Assistant Professor of Dance in the Judith Enyeart Reynolds College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities and a dedicated dance educator at Missouri State University, where she teaches Dance Pedagogy and has been a champion for service-learning as a teaching pedagogy for the past few years. With a strong background in both practical and theoretical dance education, Azaria emphasizes community engagement, particularly through partnerships with local schools like Reed Academy. She believes in bridging theory and practice, equipping students with adaptable teaching skills rather than focusing on one dance style. Her method is deeply rooted in fostering others’ artistry and includes unique tools like a comprehensive “pedagogy binder” to prepare students for careers in dance education.

Passionate about connecting art with community, Azaria views service-learning as a natural extension of dance education and continually works to break barriers between academia and local communities. She describes service-learning’s importance for her students this way: “It teaches them a sense of independence. And being a dance artist, you have to forge your own path anyway. So that’s part of their education, too – learning to make opportunities for themselves.” Now in her second year of teaching courses with service-learning fully integrated, her students bring dance to children in the community who might not otherwise have the opportunity or exposure to the art of dance.

Azaria’s service-learning work was featured in the most recent Carnegie recertification application for MSU as a Community-engaged University, and it’s clear to see why. The U.S. Department of Education’s Arts-in-Education notes that dance in the K-12 setting fosters student achievement, including improved language skills, increased math and reading skills, improved emotional well-being, and supports learning for the underserved. What an impact this program has on children in the community.

Dr. Subhasree Basu Roy, an associate professor of economics in the College of Business at Missouri State University, is being honored for her exceptional and innovative work in service-learning during the past two-to-three years. She bridges the gap between economic theory and real-world application through hands-on learning, motivated by student feedback that economics often feels abstract. By integrating service-learning opportunities into her courses, she helps students understand the relevance of economics in everyday decision-making. These projects not only enhance academic understanding but also foster essential life skills like communication, self-motivation, time management, and networking.

Dr. Basu Roy emphasizes the importance of applying economic theories to real-world scenarios, stating, “It’s not just about solving numerical problems, but about seeing how these theories play out in the real world.” Her commitment to service-learning was recently featured in the Carnegie recertification application for MSU as a Community-engaged University, highlighting her impact on both students and the community.

As an educator, Dr. Basu Roy believes that students learn most deeply when actively engaged in their communities, seeing the relevance of their classroom studies in action. Over the past few years, she has embedded service-learning projects in multiple courses, both seated and online. These projects allow students to associate course concepts with practical scenarios, contributing to their critical thinking, analyzing, presenting, networking, and time management skills.

What sets her approach apart is its broad integration with course objectives, reflective practices, and multiple community partners. Student feedback consistently emphasizes the transformative nature of these experiences, motivating many to pursue further service or advocacy work in the community. Dr. Basu Roy prioritizes building sustainable relationships with community partners, viewing these partnerships as ongoing conversations rooted in shared learning. She is proud of the impact her service-learning courses have had on overall student engagement.

Dr. Smith, a professor in the biomedical sciences department in the McQueary College of Health and Human Services, has been a champion of service-learning for nearly a decade. His dedication to fostering community engagement opportunities for students has made him a trailblazer in the department. For several years, he has overseen the 1-credit service-learning Capstone course for the BMS department, encouraging students to participate in the MSU Vision Screening Program. Since 2014-2015, BMS and nursing service-learning students have provided free vision screenings to over 110,000 individuals using high-tech vision equipment, significantly impacting community health.

Dr. Smith’s Capstone service-learning course serves as a model for others and was prominently featured in MSU’s recent Carnegie Community-engaged University recertification application. His commitment to service-learning has also led to an increase in the number of designated service-learning courses within the Biomedical Sciences department. Beyond the Vision Screening Program, his students have engaged in examining the research on hyperbaric oxygen therapy’s potential to reverse diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration and have worked with a DNA Lab, gaining hands-on experience in genetic analysis and its applications. His students have also been involved in the Medical Garden, where physicians use food as prescribed medicine, providing a holistic approach to healthcare. His students have also contributed to respite programs for homeless women recently discharged from hospitals, offering them a safe and supportive environment during their recovery. Furthermore, his students have participated in vaping education and prevention programs, addressing critical public health concerns.

Students in his BMS 300 course often credit their service-learning experiences with helping secure admissions to medical, optometry, and physician assistant schools. The practical skills and community engagement fostered through these projects make them stand out in competitive application processes. This course, which also meets Honors Service-Learning requirements, has had a profound impact on both students and the community. Dr. Smith’s commitment and dedication to service-learning has enriched his students’ educational experiences and made a significant positive impact on the community.

Dr. Yates, an assistant professor of Occupational Therapy in the School of Health Care Professions in the McQueary College of Health and Human Services, is renowned for her commitment to hands-on learning and the impact her service-learning students have on the community. Through partnerships her students address community needs by providing sustainable programs that help individuals gain independence and offer specialized mobility aids and assistive technology.

By engaging with these programs, her students gain valuable hands-on experience and contribute to enhancing the lives of community members. These service-learning students develop critical thinking, leadership, team management, communication skills, and civic responsibility, coupled with clinical knowledge to make a difference in communities. Service is at the heart of everything these Occupational Therapy students do, extending their education beyond the classroom.

Reciprocity and mutual benefit are key elements in the partnerships formed through these courses. In OTE 725, service-learning students adapt ride-on toy vehicles for children with special needs, allowing them to engage in activities they would otherwise be unable to participate in. This benefits the children by providing them with the opportunity to experience mobility independently and helps their families and communities by improving the children's overall development. The adapted cars have been distributed to numerous families, outpatient clinics, and school systems in southwest Missouri.

Similarly, in OTE 765, her students collaborate with community partners like Isabel’s House, Harmony House, and Mercy Oncology Clinic to address health disparities in underserved populations. Through these partnerships, students work closely with community organizations to identify needs and create viable programs that the partners can implement. This reciprocal exchange strengthens the students' educational experience and the partner organizations' ability to serve their communities.

Dr. Yates is committed to service-learning, providing numerous opportunities for her students to make a difference in communities. She states that applying knowledge and skills learned in experiential courses prepares them for the field of Occupational Therapy.  Her work was recently featured in the recertification application for Carnegie’s Community-engaged University designation here at Missouri State University.

Dr. Ana Estrella-Riollano, is an assistant professor of Biology and Biomedical Sciences on the West Plains campus. She is a scholar in her field with research, publications, numerous presentations, and a member of several professional organizations. Over the past two years she has integrated service-learning into her study away experiences for both students on the West Plains and the Springfield campuses. During the Spring 2023 and 2024, she led her students on an unforgettable journey through The Expedition: Leatherback Sea Turtle and Tropical Ecology in Costa Rica, a 3-credit Education Abroad course with a strong service-learning component. This short-term program immersed students in the study of leatherback sea turtles, coral reef ecology, and tropical ecosystems. Beyond the classroom, students took part in vital conservation work. They assisted biologists at Pacuare Natural Reserves, gathering data on sea turtle nesting activities, and contributed to a coral reef census at Cahuita National Park, helping assess fish populations. Their efforts directly supported research and conservation initiatives led by governmental and non-profit organizations. Offered in partnership with MSU-Springfield, this hands-on course gave students a deeper understanding of environmental challenges and the chance to make a real impact in marine conservation.

Ana’s passion for sea turtle conservation began as an undergraduate when she was selected to join a research team studying endangered hawksbill sea turtles. This formative experience—immersed in fieldwork within a protected natural reserve—inspired her commitment to ecological preservation. In 2015, she joined the Ecology Project International fellowship program, seizing the chance to bring these hands-on conservation experiences to younger generations. Now at Missouri State West Plains, Ana integrates her field expertise into education abroad and service-learning programs as noted above, giving students the rare opportunity to engage with marine and rainforest ecosystems while learning vital conservation methods and community-based environmental stewardship.

As Ana has shared many times, she is committed to providing service-learning opportunities for students through educational abroad/study away programs. She is a 2018-2019 recipient of the Board of Governors’ Excellence in Public Affairs Award and serves to inspire faculty on the West Plains campus to engage their students in Public Affairs through the integration of service-learning into their courses. She is a true champion for service-learning.

The 2023-2024 Excellence in Service-Learning Award honors Dr. Denise Cunningham. Dr. Cunningham is a Professor of Early Childhood Education, serves as the School Director for the School of Teaching, Learning, and Developmental Sciences, and is the Associate Dean for the College of Education.

This year’s Excellence in Service-Learning Award honors three outstanding faculty members - Lori Rogers and Dr. Taleyna Morris – both from the College of Arts and Letters and Dr. Bernard Kitheka from the College of Health and Human Services

Lori Rogers is a Senior Instructor in the Department of English and has been with the University since 2004. Dr. Taleyna Morris is a Senior Instructor in the Department of Communication and has been with the University since 1997 and became full-time in 2015. Dr. Bernard Kitheka joined the University in 2016 and is an Associate Professor in the department of Kinesiology. These three faculties were selected as recipients for the Bonner Community-Engaged Learning Fellowship Stipend Award that focuses on integrating service-learning into a new or existing course that would provide students an opportunity to impact both the student and their learning, and the community.

About the Recipients

Lori Rogers integrated community-based research service-learning into her English 310 – Writing II: Writing for Graduate and Professional Schools. Students worked in teams with community partners to conduct research (primary and secondary) and based on their research findings developed conclusions and solutions ranging from information gained, documents designed, and/or the development of programs or methods to address a community partners’ needs. Students wrote papers targeted for undergraduate publication and conference submission. The students’ work was outstanding and nine of the students’ papers were accepted for presentation at the spring National Conference on Undergraduate Research this spring! Not only did Lori’s students’ work impact the community partners they worked with, but their research work was nationally recognized.

Likewise, Dr. Taleyna Morris infused service-learning through community-based research into her COM 332 Small Group Communication course. In this course students learned theory and practice of group and team communication. Her students worked in six teams to complete research for organizations working to address issues in the community. Topics for their service-learning community research project included: expansion of services; increasing volunteer pools; prenatal care; food pantry outreach; best social media practices; and development of a drop-in space for foster children. Taleyna notes that what her students enjoyed most was the “opportunity to provide services to the community and to see how the skills they’ve learned in the classroom are utilized”.

Dr. Bernard Kitheka, in his REC 311, Outdoor & Adventure Education course infused service-learning into his course where students would examine issues surrounding inequities in outdoor spaces, including those used for recreation. Students are working on this initiative during this spring 2023 semester and will be able to examine how organizations support equity within their outdoor recreational and/or physical spaces; look for evidence of equity and diversity inclusion in the organization’s leadership or mission statement; and engage in assessing what type of outdoor recreational/physical activities might be conducted to raise funds and support the organization’s mission. The work in this course is viewed through the selected United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: #03 – Good health and well-being, #05 – Gender equity, #10 – reducing inequality, and #17 – building partnerships. Deliverables for this service-learning project include a detailed report with recommendations.

This year’s Excellence in Service-Learning Award honors two outstanding faculty members.

This award is presented to faculty in grateful appreciation and distinguished recognition of their hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence in foster service-learning.

Dr. Patricia Cahoj and Dr. Jeannie Cook – College of Health and Human Services

Dr. Cahoj is an Assistant Professor and Dr. Jeannie Cook, is the Department Head for the Department of Physical Therapy at Missouri State University. For the past 19 and 17 years respectively, Dr. Cahoj and Dr. Cook have integrated service-learning into their graduate level service-learning courses. Not only are they true champions for service-learning, but they were one of the first faculty members to build integrated service-learning into graduate-level courses. For years they have collaborated with a multitude of community partners, including the Dream Center, Champion Athletes, Abilities First, ARC of the Ozarks, DCO, Dynamic Strides, and Jordan Valley Community Health, just to name of few, on placements for their PT service-learning students.

In 2019, 39 Graduate-level, PT service-learning students completed some 2,442 hours of service to the community at a value of over $60,195.00*. In 2020, 40 Graduate-level PT service-learning students completed 2430 hours at a value to the community of $63,083.00*, and in 2021 amid COVID, another 40, Graduate-level, PT service-learning students completed 1800 hours of service to the community at a value of $46,728.00*. (*Based on figures from IndependentSector.org).

The value these service-learning students bring to individuals who often lack access to health care, is amazing. Dr. Cahoj and Dr. Cook are innovative and creative in their work with students and recognize and embrace the importance of hands-on learning that is impactful to the both student and the community partner learning site they serve. They go above and beyond in working with our office to determine the best possible community partners for their programs.

The CASL office is honored to have them as service-learning faculty partners. Their dedication to service-learning for their students cannot be measured. The exemplify the teaching pedagogy of service-learning. Congratulations to both and we look forward to continuing our partnership with these two, outstanding faculty.
