Students to get marks for charity work - Times Online

Students to get marks for charity work - Times Online: "University students who volunteer with a charity or complete work-placements during their studies could earn marks towards their degrees, under a new nationwide credit-based system.

Under a new credits system, to be introduced in England from September 2009, students will be able to build up credits, or points, for the number of hours of work put in to their study and the level of achievement attained."
