Service-Learning and Social Media Collide: St. John


Fisher College Students Teach Elders Facebook
Submitted by: Kate Torok, Senior Communication Specialist, St. John Fisher College

The fastest growing demographic using Facebook are people 55 years of age and older, but there are some older
grandparents who are looking to gain friends and check in with their grandchildren. And so, Dr. Rik Hunter, assistant
professor of English, developed a class for students to teach local elders what all of the ―liking‖ is about.

The class, Digital Literacies, is part of the College‘s service-learning initiative, one of 17 courses with a component of
service built into the curriculum. Hunter‘s students, a total of 20, are in week three of their Facebook lessons to eight
elders from St. John‘s Meadows in Rochester.

Each week, St. John‘s transports the residents to campus, to take part in the class. There are eight students
developing lesson plans and doing one-on-one instruction, and the other 12 students are paired in instructional
document design teams. Those teams are creating a website based on the lesson plans developed by their peers that
can then be shared with those who are participating, and the rest of the St. John‘s community.

Hunter came up with the idea after hearing a story about his wife‘s grandmother, who just started using the social
media website in the last year. She was reading through status updates from family members and saw one from her
granddaughter, who had just posted her senior class photo. She saw comments from others referring to more photos,
and was frustrated that she couldn‘t see them. A family member had to walk her through the process, and helped her
find what she was looking for.

―This is a generational issue tied to how we think about photos working in the analog world compared to the digital
world. In her mind, photos are static,‖ said Hunter. ―Technological barriers such as these are standing in the way of
elders participating on sites like Facebook, and we wanted to help change that.‖

Through this class, the students are also studying the impact of information technology on research and teaching, the
social and cultural dimensions of technology, and models of writing associated with digital media.

"I think this is a really great way to get the generations together,‖ said Debbie Hammond, director of social recreation
at St. John‘s. ―To watch the relationships developing between the ‗teachers‘ and the students is really heartwarming."

Professor in the Department of Educational Policy and Administration at the University of Minnesota, Dr. Kerri
Heffernan, Director of Faculty Engagement at the Swearer Center for Public Service at Brown University, and Dr. Gail
Robinson, Director of Service-Learning at the American Association for Community Colleges. The ―fan favorite‖ will be

th
be recognized at the 14 Annual Continuums of Service Conference, a nationally recognized service and civic
engagement conference in San Diego, CA, on April 28, 2011.

Scholarships and grants totaling $25,000 will be awarded to three category benefactors. The winner will receive a
$5,000 academic scholarship, and a runner-up and ―fan favorite‖ will each receive a $2,500 scholarship. In addition,
the service-learning centers at the University of each Student will receive a $2,500 grant to support civic engagement
programs. Additionally, $2,500 grants will be awarded to the nonprofit organizations sponsoring the winning service
projects for the purpose of supporting their vital community programs.

―We hope these stories, images and videos are shared at dinner tables across the country, and enlighten students of
all ages about the transformational power of service - both for the student, and for those they serve,‖ said Tom
Lindeman, President of Inspireum LLC. ―Our program applicants have shown us how service can teach valuable
lifelong leadership, problem solving and empathy skills. Through these awards, we hope to motivate more college
students to engage in service as an opportunity to build character and positively impact social and environmental
challenges around the world.‖

Andrew Lunetta, Le Moyne College,The Samaritan Center
I began the Le Moyne College Sandwich Makers (LMCSM) in 2008. Comprised of
students, LMCSM, in an effort to minister to the homeless of Syracuse, NY, have
provided 10,115 lunches to the Samaritan Center (a soup kitchen) and the Oxford
Street Inn (a men‘s homeless shelter) as of December 15, 2010.

Reaching beyond bread alone, the LMCSM have provided weekly writing groups, Bible
studies, and a letter writing campaign that has connected Le Moyne students with the
homeless and needy in Syracuse. This connection is the key to LMCSM. It fosters
understanding and solidarity amongst two populations that rarely interact, but have
much to offer each other.

Moshe Roberts, Binghamton University, Boys & Girls Clubs of


Binghamton
I recruited, trained and background checked over 150 student volunteers to mentor
underprivileged children at 10 before and afterschool programs run by the Binghamton
Boys & Girls Club throughout the Southern Tier of New York. The volunteers mentor
over 350 K-12 children every day, helping with homework, art, sports and personal
development.

Many of our youth live in poverty and do not get the help they need at home. The kids
are reading at higher levels than before, finishing their homework, saying ―please‖ and
―thank you‖ and behavioral incidents have dropped dramatically in just 2 years since the
―B&GC Volunteer Program‖ began!

Eugenia Soldatos, St. John’s University, St. John’s Bread and Life

I began Project Identity which is currently located at St. John’s Bread and Life Soup
Kitchen which provides forms of legal identification i.e. birth certificates, New York
States Non Driver ID cards etc… to clients of the soup kitchen. Many individuals are
without legal identification because it has been lost or stolen. Many times this is
the reason individuals cannot excel in their social and economic status.

By providing proper legal identification individuals will and are able to obtain
additional government assistance, employment and education that can lead them
one step closer to self sustainability. This program has been offered to clients since
the fall of 2008.

Judith Jean-Pierre, Kingsborough Community College, Project A.C.E .

Project A.C.E. is a community-based project that raises Awareness on Domestic


Violence. A.C.E. means Awareness, Courage, and Empowerment. My goal is to show
victims by gaining courage they will empower themselves to gain the tools they need
to take back control of their lives Control is the foundation of Domestic Violence and I
have put together presentations along with skits, holding clothesline events by
having students express how they feel about Domestic Violence on t-shirt, tabling by
handing out information to raise awareness on Domestic Violence, showing victims
that they are not alone in this situation.

I have also attended and held many conferences with the focus of domestic violence.
Bringing the attention to local junior high and high schools on new topics to Dating
and Domestic Violence, such as stalking and cyber-bullying we have been able to
present to these schools on such topics. I have organized fundraises, in turn
increasing our budget allowing us to continue helping and assist victims with
obtaining safety. Every 9 seconds a woman is abused and every 38 seconds a man is
abused. By the end of tonight 4 women will have died by the hands of their partners.
Statics have not shown how many men have died as of yet. By bringing awareness to
Domestic Violence I hope that the person that stopped at our tabling, clothesline,
conference or has seen a presentation will not be part of that static.

SAVE SERVICE IN AMERICA!

Last year more than 5 million Americans of all ages rolled up their
sleeves and tackled their communities’ toughest problems. Now, the
needs are even greater than ever and even more Americans stand ready
to serve.
Our nation is struggling in the face of challenges unprecedented in size and scope. A growing number of individuals –
including middle class

Americans - need food, shelter, healthcare, job training, and educational support. Governments at every level are
facing budget shortfalls and are poised to cut back the social service programs on which many people depend for
survival. Each time America is faced with a crisis, the programs supported by the Corporation for National and
Community Service are the first to respond—from hurricanes to earthquakes, from fires to economic depression. Now
is the time for the country to invest wisely in cost-effective initiatives that provide solutions to challenges facing
communities across the country.

H.R. 1 dismantles the programs that enable communities to take


advantage of cost-effective citizen-led solutions
H.R. 1 will eliminate the Corporation for National and Community Service and the programs it funds. This drastic act
will cut jobs and deny services to millions of Americans who need them most. The economic consequences will be felt
immediately.

The Corporation for National and Community Service is the largest grantmaker in support of service and volunteering
and it oversees Senior Corps, AmeriCorps, VISTA, NCCC, Learn and Serve America, the Volunteer Generation Fund
and the Social Innovation Fund. These initiatives tap the energy and talent of citizens to solve problems in their
communities. Citizens who serve through programs funded by CNCS are force multipliers, recruiting millions of service
participants and community volunteers and focusing their energies and talents where they are needed most. When
these programs end, critical services will be lost:

 More than 3 million at-risk children will not get instructional support from citizens serving through programs
such as Teach for America, City Year and Citizen Schools,
 More than 10,000 pre-school students served by Jumpstart tutors will not start school ready to read,
 More than 620,000 frail seniors and the disabled served by Senior Companions and RSVP will lose in-home
support; forcing them to turn to expensive institutional care,
 More than 745,000 medically underserved children and adults will not receive health outreach, education and
immunizations from Community HealthCorps members,
 More than 4,500 families will be forced to live in substandard housing, rather than Habitat for Humanity homes,
 Thousands of healthy meals will not be delivered to the elderly every day, and so much more.

H.R.1 eliminates the Corporation for National and Community


Service and denies millions the opportunity to strengthen their
communities

Nearly 650,000 AmeriCorps and Senior Corps positions will be eliminated. Service members and the staff who
supervise them will be out of work. When these programs end, significant benefits will be lost:

 $200 million annually in education scholarships, earned-awards that graduates use to pay for college,
 Skills training and professional development, proven pathways to public service careers,
 Senior Corps stipends ($2.65/hr) that low-income members use to afford prescriptions and heating bills,
Save Service continued on page 7
Save Service continued from page 6 7
 Health Insurance and student loan deferment for qualified members

If these programs end, the results will be irreversible. Faith-based and community organizations will shut down and
most will not be able to reopen even if funding is restored. The substantial outside investment that these nonprofits
leverage each year – nearly $800 million from businesses, foundations, and other sources – will disappear.

Communities across America cannot afford to lose these invaluable resources.

The programs of the Corporation for National and Community Service are critical to making sure that the skills,
ingenuity and goodwill of our citizens are directed where they are needed most. When this army of compassion is
gone who will respond to the next national challenge?

Just two years ago, Congress passed the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, a bipartisan bill that recognized
the critical role that national service and volunteerism can play in addressing society‘s unmet needs. Please don‘t
eliminate programs you committed to expand just two years ago!
Voices for National Service / 1875 Connecticut Avenue, NW, Suite 1130 / Washington, DC 20009 / www.voicesforservice.org

What can you do to help save service in America?


If adopted, these cuts would eliminate CNCS programs, including AmeriCorps and Learn and Serve America.
Please consider calling or emailing your U.S. Representative to let them know why a resolution that eliminates
funding for Corporation for National and Community Service programs is bad for communities.
How to Contact Your U.S. Representative

If you need help determining the members of your congressional delegation, visit www.congress.org. This database
will provide you with contact information for your elected officials. You can call your Representatives directly or be
connected through the House Operator (202-225-3121). Once connected, identify yourself as a constituent and ask
to speak to the Legislative Assistant in change of national service and education issues. You may also ask for the
Legislative Assistant in charge of budget issues.

Given the severity of the cuts proposed by the House, you may experience some difficulty calling the Capitol. It is
important that you keep trying. If you can't reach your representative by phone, please send a fax communication to
their office. This is time sensitive ask. Emails or mailed letters will not reach the decision makers in time. It is critical
that our lawmakers hear from the constituents directly impacted by their decisions.

Talking points for Calling the House of Representatives:

 I am calling to urge you to vote NO on any proposal to eliminate funding for AmeriCorps or the Corporation
for National and Community Service.
 The CR will decimate vital services in our communities when millions of Americans need food, shelter,
healthcare, job training and educational support.
 Communities are counting on AmeriCorps members, national service participants and community volunteers
to meet the increased demand for services.
 Provide an example of your local impact and what will be lost if your program is eliminated. Example: My
organization has 140 AmeriCorps members serving in 10 Boston Public Schools. They are providing
targeted and school-wide interventions in literacy, match, attendance and classroom behavior. If Congress
eliminates AmeriCorps, nearly 2,000 high-risk 3rd-9th graders will no longer receive this additional support in
the classroom.
 The CR will only push unemployment rates up. Unemployment numbers -- particularly for young people,
veterans and military spouses, older Americans and people of color-remain alarmingly high. Eliminating
programs like AmeriCorps will result in jobs lost for the corps members and the staff who supervise them.
Example: If Congress eliminates AmeriCorps, our 140 AmeriCorps members and the staff that supervise
them will be out of work.
 For Americans who are struggling to find work, national service programs offer participants the opportunity to
earn a subsistence-level stipend, develop skills, and create pathways to future employment.
 The federal investment made in faith based and community organizations through the Corporation for
8
National and Community Service leverages $799 million in matching funds from companies, foundations
and other sources.
 If you defund the national service programs, whole organizations will shut down and most will not be able to
reopen again even if funding is restored.

NYCC Spring 2011 Calendar

March 11, 2011- Symposium on Diversity, Sustainability and Community Service, Skidmore
College, 9:30am -2:00pm

Our world is increasingly more diverse (human population) and less diverse (biological world). On college campuses,
community service offices often work in isolation from student diversity program offices and sustainability coordinators.
However, these three areas have many shared interests and goals. Our symposium will focus on building greater
collaboration between these fundamental areas. We will explore questions such as:

 Why are students interested in environmental activism mostly white and how can we be more inclusive in our
campus environmental programs?
 What can community service directors learn from diversity directors?
 How can student diversity programs benefit from creating service opportunities in the community?
 How can our civic engagement efforts build bridges across student subgroups, and move beyond the choir?
 How can we share our perspectives and collaborate on projects such as alternative spring breaks, civic leadership
training, and service-learning initiatives?
 How can we build strategic alliances to achieve shared goals and garner more resources and recognition for our
work? Click here to register
