CAS Process 1… • THINK about what you want to do and how you want to spend your time completing your CAS hours. • Make sure it's meaningful, meets the learning objectives. • Arrange for your adult supervisor who will follow through and complete a short evaluation on your participation when finished • Everyone at LHS along with countless people in the community can be resources for you and your development of CAS. • Enter you activity into ManageBac, and wait for approval from your advisor. • Be careful to not over-claim or under-claim learning objectives. • Be sure to enter a short description and supervisor PHONE and EMAIL information to get pre-approval
CAS Process 2… After activity is over---upload evidence (journal, photos, blog, scanned documents) of your activity on to ManageBac. Be sure to REFLECT, by answering answer CAS questions on ManabeBac Reflections tab. Request supervisor evaluation through ManageBac as soon as you complete your activity. Do this thru ManageBac! Check ManageBac frequently to see if your supervisor reviews have posted. Valid supervisor reviews are a non-negotiable. Seniors need them in by January 31. Activities that have no supervisor reviews will need to be deleted. See your advisors for help… The main problem first IB class had were late supervisor reviews…. avoid this… communicate with your supervisors!
