This paper presents the assessment of a curriculum designed to help alternative 
students completing an environmental community service project to better 
understand their contribution to society and to the environment. We demonstrate 
how to reframe a community service project into a service-learning project, 
present the richness of content and attitudinal learning this brings to 
participants and inform the issue of assessing student learning in an informal 
setting.
