Jennifer Ahern-Dodson, Thompson Writing Program

This presentation will discuss how to use student video-based personal reflections on community service activities to teach critical reflection in service-learning courses. This video project also would be relevant for other community-based learning experiences (DukeEngage). The videos provide students the opportunity to: 1. Document their experience each week in the community, 2. Critically reflect on their experience by sharing with peers 3. Use video images/data to further develop writing skills and self assessment through an end-of-semester essay.
