Gerald https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785898736 If youth focus on areas where they are most knowledgeable and passionate about it is more likely that they will stay engaged in the project over time]]> 2021-10-02 13:35:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785898736 The more passionate students are about what they are doing or learning about, the more invested they will be in seeing the project through, which in turn, ensures that sustainability will be met (if the project is about sustainability!). https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785898832 2021-10-02 13:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785898832 everything is connected..start smal and ove outward. https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785898967 2021-10-02 13:35:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785898967 Recycling https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785899174 The students wanted to do something about plastic bottles and trash that were washing up on their beach.  They came up with a recycling project and I partnered them with a recycling company that offered them monetary incentives for collecting bottles, which they use for other projects in their community.

Gerald https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785904374 Despite our best intentions not every project we do will produce the results we hope for. It is thus very important to measure the outcomes and refine and or change what we do as we learn what works and what doesn't]]> 2021-10-02 13:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785904374 asilis https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785904411 Community can give a wider perspective on the impact. 
And having a longer track of the project can help us to think on the actual sustainability of it. 
It will allow to reconsider aspects of the project like in the design process in which we evaluate aspects of the prototype and then make modifications]]> 2021-10-02 13:39:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ginterns/4pra1upwm10kuyln/wish/1785904411
