Assessment (Chan, 2012)

In order to practically realize students' learning experience and outcome in experiential community service learning projects, it is important for us to assess students regardless of whether they are being awarded credit for the assessment or not. Funding and accreditation bodies often request for assessment data of experiential service learning projects in order to demonstrate accountability for the public and administrative concerns on resource utilization.

For ideas on how to assess community service projects, please see section on assessing experiential learning.
