The organization I chose to discuss is National Youth Leadership Council. National Youth Leadership Council is suppose go be a nonprofit organization, which is located in some part of Minnesota that promotes service-learning in schools and communities in many areas across the U.S. It was founded in 1983 by a guy by the name of Dr. J. Kielsmeier, NYLC is the host of the annual National Service Learning Conference.
NYLC is an international leader in service learning and have impact on more than 400,000 youth and also adults all over the world each year. I feel like this organization not only makes it better for youth but also makes more opportunities the youth. Also, The National Youth Leadership Council is the leading force in the development and advancement of youth civic engagement through service learning. We integrate service learning inti the fabric of P-16 education, there by engaging youth, educators, and communities, especially focusing where educational disparities are prevalent.
NYLC increases student learning abilities also helps increases students in school with their grades and learning abilities. NYLC offers variety of paths to reach service learning, and even online content, customized professional development, tools, and variety of thing that can benefit the youth. From my point of view NYLC program/organization are expiring the young individuals and also changing the word a little bit at a time.
To continue, A peer reviewed article: This exploratory study attempts to answer the question: can a required service learning experience of limited intensity and duration have an impact on the development of college students as participating citizens of the community? Students who provided community service showed a great difference and helped prove this organization is useful and also that they should be involved in community service more. They also become less likely to blame social service clients for their misfortunes and more likely to stress a need for equal.
Some challenges the populations served by the organization is ensure healthy development for all youth, end homeless, create social response to a changing environment, harness technology for social good, promote smart decarceration, reduce extreme economic inequality, build financial capability far all, achieve equal opportunity and justice.
Based on research and specific evidence the organization engages in solidarity work. The organization can specifically engage more in expressing support to the people, have more patience, empathy, compassion but also determination, respect, acceptance, and understanding. Special attention needs to be placed on the feasibility and necessity of doing research in conflict-setting, and the harm-benefit ratio for potential research participants. The challenges students might have engaging with the unique populations served by the organization is time commitment, ensuring positivity among the community, also ensuring student learning.
Students may overcome these issues by when these challenges are met and overcome, community engaged teaching allows students, faculty, and communities to experience profound growth. The university supports students in overcoming these challenges by improving group effectiveness and decision making. A peer reviewed article: Doris Schopper and colleague describe the functioning of the Medecins Sans Frontieres independent ethics review board and the framework used foe ethics review, and discuss challenging ethical issues encountered by the board since its inception.
The potential liabilities could exist by students participating in service learning is most cases of liability involving students arise from negligence or from failure of the campus to execute its duty appropriately to protect the students. Liability can occur when placing a student in a unsafe situation or failing to warn a student of potential dangers. Liability can also result from injury that the student causes to someone else in the performance of the job.
No they didn’t have any issues in the past to reflect poorly on the University. The risk the student might face is when student serve in a community-based organization, they should be covered as volunteers for that agency. Service-learning not covered off campus, so students need to be informed of potential risks before they volunteer. They haveto sign an informed consent form indicating they are aware of risks and will not hold the university liable in the case of an accident. A peer reviewed article: Humanitarian Assistance Operations are logistics centric operations. In contrast to other operations, logistics as a Joint operations typically emphasize command and control, maneuver, fires, and intelligence.
In humanitarian assistance, the value of military forces is logistics command, control, and execution. When a Joint task force arrives to respond to a disaster, it is a behemoth of capability compared to all other interagency, international, and nongovernmental agencies. The unique capability that makes a Joint task force valuable is the ability to organize and execute logistics operations in a chaotic environment. Cultural conflicts likely to occur if a student participates in service learning in the organization is when two or more individuals have differences in personality, values, and opinions.
Conflicts can also occur between two or more organization or community groups. The conflicts may no longer be about individual differences, but also about divisions perpetuated by ignorance and intolerance, discrimination, and a history of fear and animosity. In cases such as these, conflicts resolution between individuals may not be enough and they also have to strengthen their ability to value each other, build alliances, and find common ground in order to change the systems that support their division.
They have to transform their conflicts. A peer reviewed article: The popularity of self-report five-style conflict resolution instruments, spawned by Blake and Mouton’s (1964). Houston, TX: Gulf Publishing dual concerns theory, resulted in plethora of research studies examining possible differences in culture, gender and organizational role.
Using the Managerial Grid, dual concerns theory postulates that conflict involves balancing the desire to meet production goals versus concern for personal relationships. Five styles of managing conflicts are then revealed: smoothing, withdrawing, compromising, problem-solving, and forcing. Numerous studies using instruments derived from this theory validate its basic premises, but results have provided confusing results.
