Title: Service Learning Assignment Question Board
Course: REL 201 RTZ

Service learning is an opportunity for you to have hands-on experience learning about one or more religious groups in your community!  You can participate in one of two levels of service learning.

1. Direct service is where you have interactive contact with the religious group(s) and members of your choice. For example, volunteering at a church food pantry, cleaning a church, assisting with a church program.
2. Indirect service is where you will not come into direct contact with members of a religious group per say. You may volunteer to help in the back room of a church thrift store, participate in a walk-a-thon to help raise money for a church.

You will need to complete 10 hours of service learning with one or more religious organizations. Review the service-learning project packet that includes the pre-approval form on pages 1 and 2. Page 3 contains the hour’s verification form that will need to be filled out by your site supervisor.  Page 4 is a list of questions to guide you on your reflection paper about your service learning experience.

Step 1:  You will first need to contact a religious organization to see if they will work with you on this service learning project (if you cannot find any organizations let me know and we can discuss some options).

Step 2: You will need to fill out pages 1 and 2 of the pre-contract form, scan and upload to the assignment.

Step 3:  You will provide 10 hours of service learning.

Step 4:  You will need to fill out page 3 with the assistance of your site supervisor, scan and upload the form to the assignment.

Step 5: Write a reflective paper on your service learning experience answering the questions on page 4 of the form and submit your paper.
