UU150 Midterm 1
1.Pure Service Learning - correct answer-In these courses, students go out into the
community and serve an agency or organization.

Example in practice: California State University - Monterey Bay: Service Learning 200

Purpose: To prepare students for active and responsible community participation. To learn
skills, knowledge and competencies related to serving in the community.

Community Placement: Students choose a site that will enable them to learn about
themselves and their community. They complete a minimum of 3 hours a week, for 10 weeks
total. Students engage in both hands-on work and time spent in dialogue with community
members. The focus is on infants, children, young people and elderly people. Time spent in
the classroom and in the community is of equal importance.

Challenge: A course based in this type of model is not thought of as intellectually rigorous or
requiring as much analytical thought on the part of students as other types of
service-learning courses.

Benefits of International Volunteerism and Engagement - correct answer-Social/Cultural
Participating in cross-cultural exchange of ideas;
Working with diverse groups;
Forming of friendships and relationships;
Visiting, and contributing to, a foreign country/community;
Gaining a greater cross-cultural understanding of others and a better understanding of
customs and social norms (i.e., intercultural sensitivity), and
Developing intercultural and global competencies, including cultural self-awareness (e.g.,
how to respond to recognize and respond to cultural biases), empathy, cross-cultural
communication skills.

Personal
Learning a new language - you may have the opportunity to learn a new language, and
practice it on a daily basis;
Expanding one's world-view and the opportunity to challenge one's assumptions and
understanding of the world;
Building skills - confidence, self-worth, resilience, and ability to adapt to new environments;
Developing a sense of appreciation and better understanding of cultural issues, global
issues, languages, policies, and diverse ways of life;
Becoming more open-minded and gain a more sophisticated view of the world
Developing a better understanding of your own strengths, values, biases, stereotypes,
beliefs and likes/dislikes;
Gaining a better understanding of your professional and career goals, and
Broadening your awareness of the challenges of global justice and social equity (fair access
to resources, education, livelihood and participation in political and cultural life)

, Canadian Alliance for Community Service-Learning (Canada) - correct answer-is an
educational approach that integrates service in the community with intentional learning
activities. Within effective CSL efforts, members of both educational institutions and
community organizations work together toward outcomes that are mutually beneficial.

Capstone Courses - correct answer-These courses are offered to students in a given
discipline and are offered in their last year. Students are expected to draw on knowledge
obtained throughout their education and to apply it to a community experience.

Example in practice: Portland State University: In other words: The women's community
education project

Purpose: To design an outreach program to raise local teen girls' awareness of resources
and activities in the project. To provide a safe space for teen girls to think, talk, and write
about current issues in their lives.

Community Placement: Students make contacts with teen advocates in the community and
encourage local teen girls to engage in the project through rapping sessions. They are also
encouraged to engage in a "secondary" task where they use skills specific to their discipline
to address an issue related to teen girls.

Challenge: A course based in this type of model places the majority of the responsibility for
placement on the students' shoulders. In addition, when they graduate and leave, the
students take the valuable knowledge learned/gained with them, thus leaving the community
agency as a loss.

Challenges of International Volunteerism and Engagement - correct answer-Contributing
financially to the trip;
Undergoing a regimen of vaccinations and other health precautions prior to travel and after
travelling;
Feeling uncomfortable with the lack of privacy and space;
Experiencing difficulty communicating and being understood due to language.
Experiencing health challenges (in the short term) due to unhygienic preparation of food,
pollution, lack of sleep, etc;
Feeling isolated and alone, and missing family and friends back home;
Feeling feel frustrated as expectations may go beyond your capabilities, and
Creating more problems than you solve by your presence.

Characteristics of community service learning - correct answer-• Within curricular CSL,
service links to academic content and standards, and is appropriate to student learning goals
• In extra-curricular CSL programs, service links to student learning and development goals
• Involves collaboration between faculty/staff, students and community organizations to
determine and meet real, defined community needs
• Reciprocal in nature, benefiting both the community and the service providers by combining
a service experience with a learning experience
• Integrates a strong reflective element in order to maximize meaningful learning • Can be
used in any subject or program area so long as it is appropriate to identified learning and/or
development goals
