SERVICE LEARNING PROCESS

IPARD PROCESS
  • •Investigate: Students identify community needs through discussion, research, or exploration.

    •Take Action: Students implement the plan that they developed as a team, learn through the action of serving.
    •Reflect: At each stage, participants engage in some form of activity that allows them to think about the community need, their actions, their impact, what worked and did not work, the ways in which their work contributes to the common good, and/or similar types of analytic thinking.
    •Demonstrate: Students apply knowledge, create a final project, fundraise, and share with peers and community.
