Phase 3

NSTP FIELDWORK REPORT

The NSTP Fieldwork Report is a digital publication containing critical reflections on what you have learned and experienced during NSTP Fieldwork with our partner community.

As you have learned from Chapter 6, a report provides an opportunity for the activity implementer to present the project’s outcome, particularly on meeting the set objectives and achievements and delivering the expected results through the collation of different documentation.

The items in the final report will enable implementers to process lessons learned to promote information sharing on acceptable practices and share the impacts achieved with the stakeholders.

The NSTP Fieldwork Report is a digital publication containing critical reflections on what you have learned and experienced during NSTP Fieldwork with our partner community.

To achieve this, the FIELDWORK REPORT IS DIVIDED INTO THREE PARTS.

Write a report on the overall assessment and evaluation of the group in the community engagement process. I am suggesting that after you finish the NSTP Fieldwork 1(UST NSTP Resilience Iskul) and Fieldwork 2(Brigada Eskwela), please convene as a group to tackle the following evaluation guide:

What is the description, general overview, and scope of the activity?
Who are the participants of this activity?
Where is the fieldwork area and its background?
What area or sector do they belong to?
Why are NSTP students conducting this activity?

Actual Activity Flow

Describe the actual activities you conducted. Include variations from the planned and actual activities implemented. This section should be detailed and should answer the following:

Who was involved?
What - what happened?
Where - where did it happen?
Why - why did it happen?
When - when did it happen?
How - how did it happen

on each of the following parts of your teaching in:

Feedback and Reflection from the Participants

Synthesize comments, feedback, & reflections made by the participants.

Issues, Strengths, Challenges, and Resolutions

What issues or problems did the group encounter before, during, and after the activity?
What were the strengths and weaknesses of the process/phases?
What were the strengths and weaknesses of the group as implementers?
What were the strengths and weaknesses of the NSTP Facilitator?
From each issue, strength, and weakness, how were these handled by the group? How did these affect the activity?

Recommendation for Future Service-Learning Engagement

Is the objective of your UST NSTP Resilience Iskul and your activity plan met at the end of the activity? How can you say that it was completed?
What are suggestions and recommendations to improve the implementation of activities such as this?

INDIVIDUAL Fieldwork Reflections

This reflection will be completed individually, focusing on your personal insights and experiences from Fieldwork 1 and 2.

All group members must write their individual critical reflections.

Guide Questions:

1. In the service-learning activity, what have you learned from:

a. activity planning and implementing process?

b. your groupmates and classmates?

c. the partner community(participants)?

2. What issues or problems did the group encounter before, during, and after the activity? From each issue, how were these handled by the group? How did these affect the activity?

3. What were the strengths and weaknesses of the:

a. process/phases?

b. you and your group as implementers?

c. of the NSTP Facilitator?

4. What are suggestions and recommendations to improve the implementation of activities such as this?

5. After taking NSTP and as a future professional, how will you continue to practice participatory and empowering service-learning with the poor and marginalized? How will these help in your future academic or professional path?

Reminders:

Reflect on how your roles in teaching DRRM and First Aid (Fieldwork 1) and participating in Brigada Eskwela (Fieldwork 2) complement each other in addressing the needs of the community.
Avoid using phrases like "I feel like I'm more privileged than them," as the focus should be on highlighting the reality of the community rather than emphasizing your own innate privilege.
Please read the cartoon strip "On a Plate" by Toby Morris at https://bit.ly/3azuBA3 to better understand that poverty is a consequence of unjust societal relationships or inequality and a lack of opportunities.
Compose your reflection in English or Filipino, ensuring a minimum of 600 words.
Include photo documentation of yourself together with the community or the community actively implementing the activity.

Reflections should be informative, creative, critical, and personal.

• Be informative by sharing new knowledge based on your experiences with the process and people.

• Be creative by presenting events in a unique way beyond the usual narrative.

• Be critical by using evidence to uncover hidden layers of reality.

• Be reflective by offering a personal response to the struggle of your fellow youth and aligning yourself with their cause.

SOLIDARITY MESSAGE

Solidarity Message to the Partner Community

One or two group members will write a heartfelt Solidarity Message to the Partner Youth you engaged with, expressing appreciation, support, and dedication. Ensure it reflects our shared goals and experiences during fieldwork, while remaining sincere, empathetic, and inspiring.
