Activity: Conduct Parliamentary Procedure District Contests
Academic Rationale for Absence: These contests allow UWRF students to further develop their leadership skills. This is a service learning project assisting Wisconsin FFA members to develop an understanding of how to conduct business meetings and understand parliamentary procedure effectively.  Judging theses contests allow UWRF students a continuation of their classroom learning as teacher candidates in agricultural education.  Specific outcomes include assessing and critiquing student performance; engaging learners; and providing feedback.  Moreover, this event fulfills one component of the agricultural education goal of student service to the professional community.  Furthermore, these students are gaining valuable connections of networking with professionals in the field of agricultural education. Thank you for your support for this off-campus educational activity!
