Michael Reese & Richard Shingles‘ presentation - Digital Field Assignments: Course Projects for the Net Generation - provided several excellent examples of instructors integrating research and instruction. Many of the projects also had a clear “service” element involved, though the courses did not seem to be connected to any official university service learning initiative. For me, this was a welcome reminder that service learning need not be its own distinct, separate area of coursework, but can be (should be, I think) an integrated expectation across the curriculum.
