Journal 3
This will become a part of your Final Project (so make sure you save it to a document and add it to the Final Project paper). The 3 journal entries are to describe your service work and reflect on your experience of serving a community organization. Below, you will find questions to guide your reflection. I encourage you to answer every question in order to earn maximum points. The questions provide guidance for the type of content that should be incorporated in your journal so that by the 3rd journal entry you will have covered all of these:
Reflect on your experience of serving a community organization
What did you do at the organization?
What was the most personally meaningful moment or activity that took place during your service activity?
How has this service activity affected your life?
What did you learn about yourself as a result of your service activity?
Will you continue to make service a part of your life? Why or why not
Outcome #3: Demonstrate knowledge about the social issues relevant to the community organization in which you served
How does learning about and applying the Asset Based Community Development approach change the way you understand what it means to serve a community?
Life experiences, such as community service and civic engagement, often influences and transforms who we are and what we become.
How do you think this particular community service experience shapes the way you identify yourself and your social location?
How has this experience contributed to your personal growth and development?
How do you see yourself as more informed and active in the community?
In what ways will it be integrated into your life, community, and institution, i.e., University?
