Civic Engagement
I always thought that civil engagement was important. We all live on one Earth and I feel like we should
all take care of each other. Many people are less fortunate than others and do not have the resources to
participate in certain events or activities.
Civic engagement hands down gives people purpose. Whether its a support group or helping those with
disabilities, it helps those who need it. This encourages those who are helped to go out and continue
helping others. Just the sheer feeling of doing good should be fulfilling. It helps people learn about giving
without expecting material things as a reward.
Service-learning, like this project is great because it gives us students a chance to use our own ideas to
make the community better. I usually hate going to service projects because its a chore to get hours
instead of making a difference.
This experience definitely encouraged me to participate in more events and volunteering.
Id encourage service learning, only if the service is meaningful. Helping a teacher in the classroom does
nothing but bore students. I want to see full interaction in the classroom and outside of the classroom .
