Sharing My Service Learning Reflection

My social action project was on recycling and teaching learners about the importance of recycling. The social action project was not entirely successful. Learners did participate in cleaning the bins and putting up posters, however there was not a lot of materials that were being recycled. I can say that the social action project was not entirely effective. Learners were taught about the importance of recycling but they di not get get a lot of practice at the school on how to recycle. The service learning taught me that when i want something to be done i must not wait for another person's support or approval , i must go ahead and implement the project just as i have planned to. It also taught me that not everyone will support you and assist you when you need help so its important to rely on yourself as well as working hard for the tings that you want. Professionally i have learned that when you have an idea it is important to do in- depth planning so that when the next Pearson hears about your project they are able to understand every detail that will be done. It also taught me patience as i had to recruit learners to participate as well as finding the right time to implement my social action project . The project is very beneficial as recycling is something that is done on a daily basis and does not cost the school anything. This project is sustainable as it will be done for many years to come. It runs itself and it can be implemented at home.
