Demonstrating that you reached the ouctomes

It was interesting to hear from Cornelia about AISEC.  It sounds like there are lots of exciting opportunities out there for you soon to be graduates.  If your curiosity was peaked, take a look at the webpage: http://aiesec.org.  You can apply for exchanges at https://opportunities.aiesec.org  - just put SSE (Stockholm School of Economics/Handels) as your sending entity.  If you wish to email Cornelia for more information you can contact her on: cornelia.koziczynska@aiesec.se I think she is a good contact to have!

Thank you for helping out with the #MyFreedomDay project.  This is part of a global event and Salvador's Instagram video managed to get on the CNN site straight away.  It is still there but they change the view all the time.  Plans for this day (14th March) include a guest speaker who will talk about human trafficking in Nepal.  This is a very worrying issue and I hope that by drawing attention to it on this international day we can make a difference.



Reaching the outcomes


The time is nearing for many of you to think about your overall CAS reflection that summarises all your CAS experiences.  This reflection will:

  • show how you have met the leaning outcomes
  • show how you have  developed according to the  IB learner profile.
  • show how you had experiences across the 3 strands
Students in the past have been quite creative about how they have completed this task.  In some schools you are required to write an essay.  I do not require that.  You must, however, come up with some way of showing all the above.

Below are a couple of examples by previous students (please note there were 8 learning outcomes when they did CAS and Activity was Action).

Neither of these is perfect, but they give you an idea.  You do not need to do it digitally - some students used big paper and coloured pens, glued pictures on etc.  You just then need to scan in the final piece of work and upload in under CAS documents.
I will print out a few and give you time to work on these in Advisory.  You will need to have it ready for your last CAS interview with me.  Interviews will take place in March after the mock exams.




Keep up the CASing
