Reflection
I won’t forget what Professor Morin would
write on journals,
“Research shows that REFLECTION is an
important part of the learning process.”
I will keep that in mind by always giving my
future students an opportunity to reflect.
Reflection is the Key To Learning
● Journals
● Multi-media Projects on Pathbrite
(photos, videos, PPT Template)
● Final Reflection Paper on Pathbrite
All groups share at the end of the
semester!
Letters of Advice
I learned that it is good to get myself out there
when it comes to volunteering. I really enjoyed it
and it is something I want to continue...
By participating in a service-learning course, you
will become more outgoing and develop
relationships with awesome people you would
never have met before.
