Entries should be 1.5-page single-spaced or 3 pages double-spaced with 12-point font (Times New Roman). Submissions that are not full-length will not receive full credit.
Journals should contain a brief log of what you did, followed by a lengthier critical reflection of your experience. Consider responding to one or more of the following guiding questions:
What did you do that seemed to be effective or ineffective with your student?
How has your understanding of positive psychology and/or service-learning changed as a result of your service-learning experience?
Describe the most difficult/satisfying aspects of your service work.
What do you feel you were prepared/ not prepared for and how can this be improved in the future?
How do you think you are making an impact on the student’s life?
What is the greatest contribution you have made during your service-learning experience thus far?
What behavioral/social-emotional changes have you noticed through weekly observations of the student you are working with?
What changes have you noticed in the student’s relationship with his or her parent(s)? (if you keep in contact with them)
If it is a family member feel free to include how you think your relationship has changed with them.
