Course Description

This course aims to cultivate among students a caring attitude for the society. Grounded on the principles of service-learning, altruism, volunteerism and experiential learning, this course assists students in the integration of their service-learning experiences in order to develop an attitude of care and concern towards under-privileged groups. Students are also engaged in in-depth reflection on the relationship between individuals and the society. Through lectures, service-learning experience, self-reflection and group discussion, students are required to apply theories and concepts to design and implement a series of service for a chosen disadvantaged group affiliated with a non-governmental organization. After the service, students have to undertake presentation and discussion to consolidate the experience in personal, teamwork and the society level.
