What is Service Learning?
Service Learning is a research-based learning method through which skills and knowledge acquired in the classroom are applied through planned strategic action that addresses an authentic community need. Through Service Learning our students: undertake new challenges, plan and initiate activities, work collaboratively with others, show perseverance and commitment, engage with issues of global importance, consider the ethical implications of their actions, develop new skills, increase their awareness of strengths and areas for growth. SERVICE LEARNING @ ISB:
“I like composting. It's great how Our mission goals are to develop: the worms can turn rubbish into something that helps International Citizens – students with a strong flowers and trees grow.” sense of empathy, a respect for diverse Alfred D'hanis-Brown, 2nd Grade perspectives and a growing self-knowledge. (Composting) Independent Learners - students who have developed such a deep understanding of their classroom learning that they can apply it successfully in challenging real-world contexts.
These qualities are not developed in the classroom alone. We believe that they are the result of personal experience, acquired through active Service Learning Projects. Our students plan and execute their projects, just as adults do in the world of work: identifying goals, planning actions, marshalling resources, allocating accountabilities, analyzing results. They do so in ways “After working for the past three years with Cap that engage them with realities that are not found 48, I really developed myself as a person and as a within the “ISB bubble”...and we’re not talking about leader … This was a valuable lesson for me not tennis! This exposure helps them see the world that others occupy, and to develop their own sense of only because it taught me more leadership skills empathy, compassion and commitment. Service Learning but also to work with disabled people and learn is ‘mission-critical’ to us, so our goal is that every ISB from them.” student, every year, will have a real Service Learning Elie Lamazerolles, 12th grade (Cap 48) experience. Some will be far afield, most will be local.
4 ISB Night! “The Togo trip this year was amazing. It gave me so many opportunities to open my eyes to a new world entirely. I was able to step out of my comfort zone and learn. My personal goal … is that we ultimately have put one element … into their hands that will help them rise above the poverty and create themselves a better life, and … for their community.”
Dylan Cassell, 11th Grade (Togo 2010) OUR MISSION IN MOTION “Going on a service trip to Tanzania benefits All funds raised through ISB Night! are dedicated to both the people you help and yourself.
