Guiding Questions for CAS Experiences
Guiding Questions for CAS Experiences
Before you engage in a new CAS Experience, ask yourself the following:
Is it a real task that I am going to undertake?
Does it have real consequences for other people and/or for me?
What do I hope to learn from getting involved?
What can I reflect on during this activity?
Your CAS activities should involve:
Deep involvement (rather than a passive role)
Real value (for the student and other people/environment)
Real reflection (you can find meaning in what you accomplished)
If you've considered these questions above, and you have determined that this is a valuable experience for you to participate in, add it to your CAS Portfolio on ManageBac for CAS Coordinator approval.
