The group agreed to delimit the term.

provides assistance to people who are socially
and economically helpless
It means economic empowerment
It provides employment and sustainable jobs
It offers and provides skills training
It creates jobs and make money

From “Rags to Riches”
Livelihood Programs to a country with
poverty problems like Philippines
Adopting Communities like Informal Settlers,
training them with vocational formation

Q2:
Service Learning-Program

SLP- is just one methodology
“Not new” to a Catholic perspective
It is just one of the various areas in the school that
provides service learning programs
It costs the Institution
It can be modified, it can take a new style
Education must strike the balance of educating not
only the mind but also the heart (caritas et scientia)
Philippine Experience: (babad-malay-suri) or
exposure-action-reflection gears towards VALUE
FORMATION
Q3:
empirical teaching experience




It should invite wider/holistic impact to a
community
Respondents number is a big deal
If the students appreciated the program it is
not the experience but the values being
formed in them whilst engaged in the
exposure
It is the post-encounter that matters
SLP: Revived and CONTINUED?





Compulsary
NO (ACADEMIC)CREDIT
12 hours in Class 18 Hours in Exposure
Seen by students as “useless” from the start
The desire to revive or continue is due to the
VALUES SURELY FORMED during the
process.
Final remarks: Doing good is
addictive
The experience of doing good to others
begets good motivation to continue doing
good whatever it costs.
