result all students must 36 sixty hours of service learning 37 they will not receive a diploma Service learning is academic learning that also helps the community 38 of service learning include cleaning up a polluted river working in a soup kitchen or tutoring a student 39 a service experience students must keep a journal 日志 and then write a 40 about what they have learned Supporters claim that there are many 41 of service learning Perhaps most importantly students are forced to think 42 their own interests and become 43 of the needs of others Students are also able to learn real life skills that 44 responsibility problem solving and working as part of a team 45 students can explore possible careers 46 service learning For example if a student wonders what teaching is like he or

explore different careers 53 I don t believe you should force people to help others the 54 to help must come from the heart I think the best 55 is one that gives students choices a student should be
