☑ Learning in small groups – When preparing social services activities, members maybe assigned to different job duties, e.g. administration, material preparation, venue arrangement, logistic support and so on. They also need to cooperate closely with different departments to run the activities smoothly. ☑ My path, my pace – There are different forms of social services, e.g. environmental protection, heritage conservation, poverty jobs, elderly services. Members can explore what they are interested in and express their concerns on that issue. ☑ Learning by doing – Members learn how to do social services and participate in different positions. They also learn the operation of a social service unit. ☑ Connecting with others – Members work close with local social service organizations and make friends with the workers, volunteers there. They also contact different target groups e.g. children, elderlies and street sleepers. ☑ Connecting with my world – Members learn to pay attention to the social problems in the society and care for the underprivileged groups. They help in the process of social construction. |
