SERVICE-LEARNING RECORD REQUEST

11

The Reflective Journal Keeping a diary or journal of your experiences at the site will help you to consider more deeply the significance of its personal impact as well as any connection to your class studies. If your instructor requires you to keep a journal, always follow your instructor’s requirements when completing your assignment. The following suggestions will provide insight into what you are experiencing and how you are feeling about it.

For confidentiality, always use pseudonyms rather than the real names of partnership site clients.

Let your thoughts and feelings flow when you write. Don't worry about editing your writing since tinkering with spelling, grammar, etc., could blunt emotions. The writing does not have to sound pretty, profound or poetic. The goal is to develop your senses and observation skills so the writing reflects who you truly are. Just be yourself.

It may be helpful to write the factual or objective account of the experience the same day it occurs. This will ensure that the memories are fresh and intact. Students sometimes use this portion to consider any possible links or conflicts between class theory and the event.

Next, explore and describe your reactions and perceptions to your day. This is the subjective part of your journal and should represent the free expression of yourself. You will find that this gets easier the more often it is attempted.

You will get the greatest rewards in this exercise if you avoid thinking of the journal as only a work log. It can help you to identify positive learning experiences as well as put problems in their proper perspective. The journal can become an excellent tool for you to chart your personal and academic growth.

The Purpose of Reflection

To promote academic learning Recognize application of knowledge and skills learned in classroom Recognize the use of problem-solving skills Stimulate complex thinking Learn interrelationship between academic subjects

To encourage personal development Reveal personal changes in one’s self-image Promote career interest thinking Recognize importance of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills Build learning from experience Recognize benefits of collaboration

To improve community program development Improve quality of future service Improve benefits to all parties involved

Adapted from Conrad & Hedin's "Practical Suggestions for Reflection Learning from Service: Experience Is the Best Teacher — Or Is It?"

Safety and Service Suggestions for Volunteers Service to the community may take you to places that seem different from your own neighborhood. Some people welcome the chance to learn about new areas, but others wonder if they are safe. The following simple precautions make good sense at a service site as well as in your hometown, your favorite weekend spot or on the Anne Arundel Community College campus.

Know where you are going. Make sure you have the correct address and a verbal description if possible. Get the telephone number so you can call for directions if you get lost. Have a map. Check the route before you go.

Before you go to the site, make an appointment so that people are expecting you. Do not go where

you are not expected. Always let someone know where you are going and when to expect you back.

Avoid being a target for trouble. Be aware of your environment at all times. Do not display expensive jewelry, large amounts of cash or valuable items such as sports equipment, iPods or cellular phones. Do not leave the same articles visible in your car, whether locked or unlocked.

Always lock your car. When returning to a parked car, have the key in your hand as you approach.

Before opening the car, visually check around, under and inside.

Take action if necessary. It is very unusual to be harassed or threatened while volunteering in the community or traveling to a site. If you should be harassed or threatened, try to leave the area and avoid the situation. Then, notify appropriate authority (i.e. supervisor, police, etc.).

Report any incident or accident to your service-learning professor and the Sarbanes Center.

Sample Phone Script & Suggestions for Contacting a Community Partner

1. With whom to speak: When calling the Community Partner, always ask to speak with the contact person identified in the service-learning handbook. If that person no longer works at the site, ask to speak with the volunteer coordinator. (Please e-mail us at [email protected] if the contact person has changed. Thank you!)

2. When to call: Always try to call the contact person during the times they have identified as the best time to reach them. If you must leave a message, identify yourself and state why you are calling, your phone number, and the best time the contact person can reach you. Be persistent. You might have to leave several messages before you are able to reach your contact. Or, email them if you do not get through by phone.

3. What to say: Hi. My name is _________ , and I am a service-learning student at Anne Arundel Community College. I am enrolled in (name of course) and I am interested in volunteering at your site. I need to complete (number of hours your instructor requires) by (state your deadline) and I would like to know if you have any volunteer opportunities where I might be able to help and also learn more about your organization and its services. (Don’t forget to mention any special skills, certifications or experience you have that might be relevant to the organization.)

4. What to ask: What will I be doing? Is there an orientation? Where will I be working? (Ask for specific directions.) What should I wear? Where can I park? If you are interested, ask if you can visit the site before you begin volunteering.

5. Confirm the agreement: Agree on what you will be doing. Determine tentative dates you will perform your service hours. Get the site supervisor to sign your Service-Learning Contract.
