Service Learning is the process whereby students apply the contents learned in class to the community to help meet the identified need, to bring about the positive change, while at the same time students gain more and clearer understanding of the contents learned in class by reflecting on the service activity experienced, also to gain a broader appreciation of the discipline and an enhanced sense of civic responsibility.
In service learning i have come to an understanding that we learn more about the contents when we get involved and experience the explained theories. We get to even have our own interpretations of the contents in because we understand better. As an education student going to schools and experiencing learners and their overall behavior in class, stimulates the thoughts of how am I going to handle the similar situations when I am in practice. In this way I get to know whether I am able or not, and find possible solutions and also help from others. It builds the needed confidence in one's career, that they can be able to supply whatever it is required of them in the practice of what they are studying for.
