Authors Argument
Khane and Westhem argue that Service Learning is an importnt aspect for children. It should be done in all schools, kids will benefit from it. It can help children less fortunate, and that have low self esteem about their learning abilities.
Evidence
- The ability of a service learning curriculum to foster aythentic, experience-based learning opportunities , to motivate students, to help students engage in higher-order thinking in contextually varied enviorments, and promote interdisciplinary studies.
- By finding and engaging in community service activities, Mr Johnson explained, students would interact with those less fortunate than themselves and woud experience the excitement and joy of learning while using the community as a classroom
- Efforts to intergrate service learning activities into curriculum have great potential, it has political dimensions
Comments
It was a bit hard for me to read this handout, because it was alot of information to take. Though it was alot I liked the points, that children should have the opportunity to experience service learning. I love my service learning eexperiene; I feel that i am helping a child in need and helping them gain knowledge.

Did you see the differences in the CHARITY vs. CHANGE models that they talked about? DO you think your work at MLK is more charity based or change based?
