Brainstorming is fun
About to begin the project :)
Finished product
Another job well done!
During the past few months it has been so amazing getting to know the students that I am working with. One of the programs that I work with through LiteracyCorp is called Learning Together through Guilford Child Development. Learning Together is a family literacy program that offers free GED and ESL instruction to adult participants and an academically rich curriculum for their children.
One of the goals that I have while working with this program is to create a group of motivated, well-trained, intelligent, on call tutors that work with the GED and ESL students enrolled with the Learning Together program. After doing a needs assessment within the program, learning the ins and outs of the protocol and HR process, I am ready for recruitment.
The Make a Difference Project that I decided to do was to have to students to brainstorm ideas for fliers that would recruit tutors for the program. As a class, we discussed why they would like to have tutors and what they would want in a tutor. We also talked how they could create flier and what they could draw on their flier to make it more attractive.
These fliers will be put up in visible places within the community in hopes to gain more volunteer interest for our program. This project will not only make a difference for our program in the amount of volunteers that we will have but also made a difference for our participants. They each had a chance to think about how they would recruit volunteers and learned how to make fliers. Also, we all had fun in the process!
