Final Reflections Help Session

CONSIDERED THE ETHICAL IMPLICATIONS OF YOUR ACTIONS

Choose ONE of your SERVICE activities from the past two years. Reflect on how your involvement in the activity relates to the following quote. Title this reflection "the ethical implications of (name of service activity)".

"Doing good is not about doing something, it's about doing the right thing." *

Alternatively, this quote could be modified to:

"Service is not about doing something, it's about doing the right thing." or
"Serving is not about serving in some way, it's about serving in the right way."

Questions to help you:
  • Did you do good? What good?
  • How do you determine whether you did good or not?
  • What does sustainability have to do with it?
    • Was your service project sustainable?
  • What could you do differently in the future? 
  • What is you biggest critique of the service project? 

*This quote is taken from the article "North Korea Won't Be Liberated in a Day" by Mike Deri Smith, published on themorningnews.org. It is in reference to criticisms of the the viral KONY video campaign of 2012. 

For Brent Diploma CAS Students:

Write a final reflection that answers the following question. Which CAS activity/ies has/have helped me to grow the most and how?

Volleyball!

If you are thinking about joining volleyball, proposals must be written on your blog AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

Winning ISAC must not be your only goal. Your goals must be related to at least one of the 8 learning outcomes and they must be personal and individualized. 

*Think about specific skills you want to improve, your own physical fitness, how you work with teammates, your own coachability, etc. 

Talk to your coaches to get ideas on creating specific goals.
