Service Learning
ISK’s Service-Learning Vission
ISK seeks to develop students as compassionate and curious global citizens. To that end, we aspire, through service-learning, to engage students in meaningful change by “learning from and acting with” local and global communities.
ISK’s Service-Learning Mission
ISK uses the service-learning, empathy-to-impact cycle, embedded in curriculum, clubs and after-school activities, so that students take responsibility for their world (Care), learn from other people in their world (Aware), develop the skills to participate in their world (Able), and act for meaningful change in their world (Impact). This means that students will act on their learning, and learn from their action, always in a posture of humility and reflection. As students engage in service-learning, ISK stresses the importance of reciprocal partnerships of learning and action with communities and organizations in our local place in Rwanda.
ISK’s Service-Learning, Empathy-to-Impact Cycle
ISK has adopted from Inspire Citizens an empathy-to-impact service-learning model. This cycle of Care, Aware, Able and Impact supports the vision and mission of ISK.
