Recommended: Reflection on personal leadership qualities

1. What were your expectations before you started this organization (physical characteristics, neighborhood, personnel, individuals you served, ect.?) My expectations before starting are high, I’m going to get job training in administration which is going to help me with future jobs. The neighborhood s in a very nice place. There’s a park right next door, which brings a lot of parents who want to know more about the organization. The people who have helped me so far are nice and respectful, I feel comfortable working alongside them. The director of the organization always asks how I’m doing and checks up on me to see if I have any questions. Along with the activity coordinator, she also checks up on me and makes me feel welcomed. 2. Use …show more content…

Thinking relates to my experience since I have to file papers in a certain way, allowing me to be able to categorize it and put them together how they should be in alphabetical or numerical order. Also, I had to come up with ways to memorize certain information to later on explain it to parents or kids in the simplest form. • Learning: A relatively permanent change in behavior brought by experience. Learning relates to my experience by it taught me how to associate with different kinds of people. Parents from different ethnicities would ask me for information about the organization and I would kindly tell them all about it. The kids would also ask me what kind of activities they would get to do and I would explain it to them. • Short-Term memory: Memory that holds information for 15 to 25 seconds. This applies to my experience by I memorize names and numbers to put categorize them together, but I don’t remember them an hour later. I would also memorize events and activities that would be happening on a weekend for parents who came in to find out and would later forget it when I came …show more content…

What knowledge and skills have you learned or developed as a result of doing this Service Learning Project? I have learned to be punctual. I would call their office and ask if they needed my help that day, I would be told if I could make it at a certain hour and I would always say I’m available. I would make sure I’d be there 5 to 10 minutes before. I also learned to speak to strangers without being nervous, the nicest parents would come up to me and ask me about my day before making me tell them about the organization. This made me feel comfortable talking to them and also encouraged me to try my best and answer all the questions they had. 6. Select two United Nations human rights articles that are related to the individuals you served. Write the number and the articles of two human rights. I selected number 23, Worker’s Right, which is every grown-up has the right to do a job, to a fair wage for their work and to join a trade union. I also selected number 2, don’t discriminate, which is the rights that belong to everybody, whatever our

Perla knows her students because she has been working with the learning since it opened about three years ago.

Unit 3 Discussion I believe that the most important human rights to protect are: Article 2-Freedom from Discrimination, Article 7-Right to Equality before the Law, and Article 18 -Freedom of Belief and Religion. The article on Freedom from discrimination is valuable because it protects people from racial, age, gender, religious, or political discrimination. For example, in many job applications, companies tend to discriminate elders or people of color. However, under the Article 2 of human rights, all people have equal chance to access equal job opportunities.

Now lastly service, service can be exemplified by volunteering at places like the community service, helping with races, or volunteering at museums like the Mariners Museum, and the Living Museum. I personally can connect to the service category because you can learn a lot about doing community service and helping others out. It can also give you a new learning experience. But now, I would like to give some advice to the new members. Firstly, always try your best, this may seem like,”Oh everyone tells me this, why is she telling me this?”.

I think the best thing I have learned and seen is the way our community comes together to support the families in our community that are not as fortunate as some other families. It really makes you feel better as a person that you can help kids have a better Christmas that they originally expect. To a lot of people they don 't think that this fundraiser really serves a purpose but seeing how grateful the parents are for this organization is surreal, I can only imagine what the kids feel like when they wake up Christmas morning to more than they expected. I 've also learned that for most of my years I have taken a lot for granted given that I grew up in a more well off family that hasn 't ever had too big of issues giving us the Christmas we had wanted. So now that I see the struggles some families go through it definitely has opened my eyes and made me want to have some sort of impact to better someone else 's Christmas, just off of the fact that it is selfish that I thought for so many years that everyone had as good as a Christmas as I have had over the

The service project itself provides the opportunity to make a tangible impact in the community and apply what we've learned. It allows us to put theory into practice and develop important skills. However, being able to make connections between course concepts, personal values, and the service experience adds a deeper level of meaning and understanding. It helps us see the broader implications of our actions and fosters a sense of purpose and growth. In my opinion, the combination of "doing" the service project and making connections is what truly enhances the service learning experience.

Firstly, I have to agree with the importance of service learning as it contributes to a great experience in the way one can receive hands on experience, and apply their knowledge. However, this article strictly focuses on the benefits of service while not emphasizing the importance of how it is only effective if one takes it more serious then just a placement. In can only lead to great success if one actually puts in effort, and gives it they’re all. In terms of having a service learning opportunity one must be committed, open minded, and actually want to contribute in helping the community. In relation to my self, I am constantly counting down the days until I am back into my service learning experience as I enjoy being there and supporting the children.
