The Generator, Winter/Spring 2012

Evaluate the Experience, Demonstrate New Understanding

With this issue of The Generator we explore the last two steps of the service-learning cycle, “evaluate the experience” and “demonstrate new understanding.” Learn how purposeful implementation of critical inquiry can spur deeper engagement in service-learning projects. Read how a Brooklyn, N.Y. elementary school uses reflection as a key part of the service-learning experience, and how a Mounds View, Minn. elementary school practices backward design in their service-learning as a way to reach state standards and increase instructional rigor.
