The Three Levels of Reflection
The Mirror (A clear reflection of the Self)
* What have I learned about myself through this experience?
I have learned that just because you're young doesn't mean that you can't help. I learned that I can do what ever I put my mind to.
* Do I have more/less understanding or empathy than I did before volunteering?
I basically have the same understanding, I know that some people think volunteering is useless. They think "why do something, if you're not getting paid". But volunteering is a thing that everyone should do once in their life.
* Will these experiences change the way you act or think in the future?
I think some of these experiences will change the way I act and think in the future because I am now more open to helping people.
The Microscope (Makes the small experience large)
* What would you change about this situation if you were in charge?
I would change the organization skills of some fundraisers.
* What have you learned about this agency, these people, or the community?
When I walked for the help of Funding for Cherry Hill, I learned that many people actually care about their community, because they have fundraisers like this to fund different things. & I think that communities here should do the same. When I volunteered for Frankie's Fight Carnival, I learned that people do care, especially when students from our school showed up.
* What more needs to be done?
I think that more people need to volunteer for things, because although it may seem so small, in actuality it;s helping a lot.
The Binoculars (Makes what appears distant, appear closer)
* What are three big issues that create problems that our service is trying to address?
-Violence
-Homelessness
-Health
* What else could be done to change the situation:
o Locally - Create awareness groups.
o Nationally - Use the media.
o Internationally - Create big fundraisers, like ( Keep A Child Alive )
* How will service learning change your future behaviors/attitudes/and career?
Service Learning will help change my future behavior because I am now more aware.
Service Learning will help change my attitude because it opens my eyes of how I should be grateful what I have.
