While in school, it is a wonderful time to begin to teach upcoming professionals about giving back to the communities they live or work within. These young adults can inspire the next generation of students to do the same. Participating in service learning allows students to see the impact of their hard efforts on the communities they serve. Witnessing the specific needs or purposes that need to be addressed by the community should inspire the students to get involved in order to make a difference. Teaching should focus on enabling students to enter the workplace, including opportunities for personal development.
