Case: Volunteer Capstone Project Our school is looking to start a capstone project where students are required to complete volunteer hours each year that they are in school. Then their senior year they will complete some sort of paper about their experiences. These hours from each year and paper will be tied into their senior English/language arts class. I have so many reservations about this capstone project. The biggest one is how is a volunteer capstone project if we require them to do it? And how do we keep students from "cheating" their way through the hour requirements? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Perhaps the "Volunteer Capstone Project" is a kind of play on words. What I mean, is that it sounds like it is not a voluntary assignment but required. However, the word volunteer is referring to what they will be doing. In other words, they have a required assignment in which they will volunteer their time at some particular charity, outreach, etc. Make sense? Oh the irony of a required volunteer...or is that an oxymoron? |
