15. Is Going Paperless Part of Your 21st
Century Initiative?
Students and administrators alike tend to put-off their record-keeping tasks when
forms must be signed and notes read and filed by hand. The old paper system didn’t
encourage students to volunteer or be good time managers.
Today’s tech-native youth intuitively know there is an easier way to track their service
time besides filling out a form.

Students can log their service hours using the
free x2VOL mobile app while on site at an
organization.

16. What is the Main Barrier To A
Successful Service Program?

17. The Problem: Paper Tracking
Most schools track student
service hours on paper
forms with physical
signatures.
Paper forms are a
decentralized, time
consuming, inaccurate
way to measure the impact
of student service and
progress.

• Admin permissions are assigned to a person at each school. This person
grants access to counselors, faculty and club sponsors.
• Groups and Goals are established. We will help you set these up.
For instance, you will have graduating class groups (Class of 2013) and you
may also want an NHS group, Athletics group and/or Student Council.
• You can decide if the service hour goals can be shared (double-dipped) or if
they are exclusive to a group.
• Student hours and reflections are approved by the school and verified by
nonprofit organizations.
• Real-time reports are generated from the goals in x2VOL and
can be sorted on screen and exported to .xls.
