I think giving students problem-based questions is good practice for the Carrer they want- Animal Medicine. Veterinary Assistant, and beyond.

I want to start using RUBRICs, still not sure how to apply them to my subject.

Being online also allows students to do things they normally would NOT do in class. Regulations to fix this is a difficult road ahead but slowly the bad seeds will be dropping away from those who want to learn.

Service learning shows what may be involved in that career. Being told stories from people has nothing on going thru it themselves.

I think my students can apply service learning to the visits we make to various animal facilities. Those 3 questions are fantastic to motivate the students. Bringing back the things learned in service learning help build pride in the facility they attend not just one of the numbers.

Services students can provide can help others in caring for their animals correctly. Time is all they will spend, if only 1 person decides to further their education to provide correct info to those who want to know is worth that time they spend.

I teach adults in a post high school facility and many just go with the flow, getting them out in the community helps them see the 'other side' so to speak and shows them if they really want to continue on the path they choose, Vet med-. Not all will want to do farm calls and likewise for those who want to work in a practice where the animals come to them.
