Assignment

This assignment was to be completed in a group of 8 students and will contribute 30% of the overall marks. The assignment was separated into group (20%) and individual (10%).

Our group assignment was practical in nature and aimed at helping us apply the things we learnt in a real life scenario. We were tasked with performing community service at a home or centre of our choice for a minimum of 5 hours. The home we chose was Ti-Ratana on the 5th of October 2013.

Our activities consisted of cleaning at the two old folks home( Male & Female). We all did our part in making sure everything was cleaned. Next we moved to the Teaching and Learning session at the Orphanage. We conducted tuition for the children there as well as playing games with them.

      Once the visit was done, we had to prepare a report detailing our activities, feelings, opinions and also attaching photographs

       The individual assignment was where we had to keep a journal or diary which notes down the students discussion and activities from the day the group was formed till the day the report is submitted.
