Finding a better setup

We reorganized the packing station together. Asking the regular volunteers what slowed them down helped us find a better setup.

Dictate Memory

In Embark, speak a memory and review the transcript before saving. Here’s a sample you can try.

I helped a new volunteer lead the afternoon packing station. By the end of the shift, they were showing someone else how to get started.

Sample transcript. Microphone access is available in the app.

Remember more than your hours

Reflect when you’re ready

Keep it simple. Just write down what happened. Come back later to reflect on what it meant to you.

Memory

Showing someone else the way

I helped a new volunteer lead the packing station. By the end of the shift, they were showing someone else how to get started.

Reflection

I hadn’t realized how familiar the packing station had become. Explaining it to someone new helped me notice what I’ve learned.
