2. (ARRANGED ACC. TO NO.)

4. ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP
Active Citizenship refers to the
voluntary capacity of citizens
and communities working
directly together or through
elected representatives to
exercise economic, social or
political power in pursuit of
shared goals.

5. • Active Citizenship concerns
everyone.
• We all have rights and
responsibilities, and shared
national, continental and global
interests.
• Strong and healthy communities
welcome diversity in cultural

6. Barriers to Active Citizenship

13. BOTTOM LINE (What have I learned?)
Being an active citizen is a big
way on the development of
ourselves and at the same
time it is a big help in the
development of our country.
All of us should be engage with
each other and cooperate with
one another in making our
country progressive and
peaceful.

15. Service learning as
Citizenship
Service Learning is a teaching and
learning strategy that integrates
meaningful community service with
instruction and reflection to enrich the
learning experience, teach civic
responsibility, and strengthen
communities

16. • They are positive, meaningful, and real to
the participants.
• They involve cooperative rather than
competitive experiences and thus
promote skills associated with teamwork
and community involvement and
citizenship.
• They address complex problems in
complex settings rather than simplified
problems in isolation.

17. • They offer opportunities to engage in
problem-solving by requiring participants to
gain knowledge of the specific context of their
service-learning activity and community
challenges, rather than only to draw upon
generalized or abstract knowledge, such as
might come from a textbook.
As a result, service learning offers powerful
opportunities to acquire the habits of critical
thinking; i.e. the ability to identify the most
important questions or issues within a real-
world situation.

18. • An episodic volunteer program
• An add-on to an existing
school or college curriculum
• Logging a set number of
community service hours in
order to graduate

19. • Compensatory service assigned as a form of
punishment by the courts or by school
administrators
• Only for high school or college students
• One-sided: benefiting only students or only the
community

20. BOTTOM LINE (What have I learned?)
I have learned that this Service
Learning is a program or
training where in we are able to
engage ourselves in serving our
community or society. It
develops our sense of
patriotism and the sense of
being a part of the society.

22. It is because this topic is a wake up call
for us students to be an active member
of the society. It is a message for all
of us that we should be united as one
for the development of our country in
terms of social or economical aspects.
This topic provokes a sensitive reaction
towards building the sense of
nationalism within myself. And that’s
why this topic is worthy to be kept, not
only through this (e-portfolio) but it
should be kept in our heart and soul.

24. As an education student of the
University of Saint Louis , I take this
course as a pre-service learning
or training for the job that I will be
taking on in the future. Teaches had a
crucial job on developing a person,
especially for the basic education
because it is the time where in a person
will develop his abilities and values to
learned. It right and proper to be
serious enough in taking this course
because it will not only make myself to
be an active citizen but this will help to
create more active citizens in the
