Finance Question
You must post a 5-7 page Reflection Journal to Canvas under “#GEA1 Service Learning Experience” by the due date in the syllabus. This Journal should include your Preflection paper, the summary of your service hours, and two pictures of you performing the service at your service organization in an Appendix. Your Reflection should include what happened before, during, and after the Service Learning Experience. Each student will address the questions below.
Initial Expectations: Describe your initial expectations relative to the reality of the service learning experience.
Disciplinary Skills to Apply: What specific disciplinary skills (i.e. skills learned in your major or in the MCOB) have you used at your community site?
My Contribution: How did your contribution specifically supported the goals of the service organization and/or allowed you to make a difference in the community?
New Vision and Mission: Based on the knowledge gained in your service learning experience and concepts taught in this class on developing a mission and vision, draft a new and improved mission and vision statement for the organization. You should include not only the new mission and vision but also an appropriate rationale for the mission and vision including elements of the organization as well as required elements needed in a well written mission and vision statement.
Share, Feedback, and Revision: Share the new mission and vision statement you created with at least two other people capable of giving you feedback on the soundness of your new mission and vision (fellow student, volunteer, or nonprofit employee, etc.). After getting feedback from the first person, revise the mission and vision statements to accommodate the new ideas or suggestions. Do this again with the second person. Document the feedback received and how you revised the statements each time. In other words, you must complete two rounds of sharing and revising your mission and vision statement. Make sure you explain what advice you followed (and why) and what advice you felt didn’t warrant changes (and why).
Diversity Expansion: Based on your experience with the organization and in drafting the vision and mission explain how you might recommend that the organization expand the diversity of those it serves while achieving its mission. Identify diverse constituencies that might benefit from the organization’s services or with whom it could collaborate to extend its mission.
Ethical Dilemmas: Based on your service learning experience, what ethical dilemmas do you think can arise in non-profit organizations?
Ethical Leader Requirements: What is required to be a good ethical leader in a non-profit organization?
