-“I think it is possible to empower learners (through service learning) and not promote the common good (by reinforcing a sense of inferiority among those “served†or a false sense of power among those who “serveâ€).
-How do you avoid the sense of inferiority if/when service is seen as a process?
-The other questions we have are: How does it relate to other service not just missions in Mexico? If your motivation for service is skewed, then is your service towards people beneficial or detrimental?
-These questions are worth pursuing because the answers can give insight into whether or not a person should even be involved in service. Â
