I signed up for Science in the Classroom. Honestly, I chose this service learning project without much knowledge of what I should expect. All I knew was that I would be presenting science in the classroom-pretty self explanatory. But without knowing what I was about to get myself into I chose this project above all of the others because I really enjoy science. When I was a little kid I would have loved for some college student participating in a service learning project to come to my class.
Dr. Ball keeps talking about how the importance of this class is relating it to people, taking science and making it important. Well, on a small scale I get to go into a classroom take science and somehow relate it to a group of students. I get to help make it important to them, and hopefully spark something inside to make them aware of the world around them. So yes, I believe my time with this agency will help me learn in Environmental Studies 121.
