University service learning programs may develop problematically paternalistic orhierarchical relationships between faculty, students, and community partners (Laninga, Austin,and McClure 2011). Within the evolution of service learning programming, universityrepresentatives have begun to step back from the ‘expert- recipient’ model of intervention andshift towards a truly collaborative community-based enterprise (Frankel 2011).

. Rather,these students might have relied on their pre-established behaviors to select a singular answerand overlaid that answer with an assignment of 100 coins. This is a justifiable approach from astudent perspective, given that the coin distributions did not affect how students were graded.For future work, it is recommended that CDRM be integrated into the scoring of multiple-choicequestions.Second, the use of CDRM should be expanded to other assessment instruments. In this case, itmight be better to evaluate this method on exams rather than short quizzes to ensure a higher rateof participation across the spectrum of student levels of conceptual understanding. Given that afraction of students were absent for each quiz in each semester, it is
