Service-Learning • “Involves students in community service activities and applies the experience to personal and academic development”- (CSU)
Benefits • There are many benefits of service learning. • You gain hands on experience • Develop critical thinking and problem solving skills • Learn more about social issues • -(University of Minn)
My Service • As a service-learning experience I participated in the Blazer Build also known as “Habitat for Humanity”
Service Explanation • In the Blazer Build my teammates helped a small group of construction workers build a home. We put up windows, doors, siding on the house, and shingles on the roof.
My Experience • After the community service experience I felt like I was a part of someone’s dream. My teammates and I participated in building a home for someone less fortunate.
What I learned During the project there were trained construction workers. They taught us how to build a house.
What I Constructed • I put shingles on the roof. • I put in windows • I cut wood • I put up doors
My hours • I tallied a total of 15 hours of community service this year • I did four hours on the Blazer Build.
