Reflecting on Service National Service Resource Center National Service-Learning Clearinghouse

A few words to reflect on Experience is not what happens to people; it is what people do with what happened to them. - Aldous Huxley (with liberties) We do not learn from doing, we learn from thinking about what we do. - Northwest Service Academy

Why reflect? Gives meaning to the experience Relieves tension and re-energizes participants Sense of accomplishment Integrates service into one's life Reality Check Acknowledges gained skills

Research shows Reflection has some positive impact on the attitudes of the volunteers regarding service The lack of reflection has a STRONG NEGATIVE impact

Three stages of reflection pre-service: examine own beliefs, assumptions and attitudes during service: learn from peers, share observations; ask for and receive feedback; ask questions; and solve problems post-service: evaluate impact of service; acknowledge personal growth

Reflection may include Reactions Feelings Observations Ideas

Reflection can happen through Writing Speaking Listening Reading Drawing Acting

Reflection should: Have an outcome in mind Be appropriate for the group Happen before, during, and soon after service Be directly linked to the project experience Dispel stereotypes Address negative experiences

Reflection should: Increase appreciation for community needs Increase commitment to service Be varied for different learning styles Actively involve the service recipients Be facilitated well for maximum participation, creativity, and learning
