wish to move forward.

Undertaken new challenges. A new challenge may be an unfamiliar activity, or an
extension to an existing one.
Planned and initiated activities. Planning and initiation will often be in collaboration
with others. It can be shown in activities that are part of larger projects, for example,
ongoing school activities in the local community, as well as in small student led
activities.
Worked collaboratively with others. Collaboration can be shown in many different
activities, such as team sports, playing music in a band or helping in a kindergarten. At
least one project, involving collaboration and the integration of at least two of creativity,
action, and service is required.
Shown perseverance and commitment in their activities. At a minimum, this
applies attending regularly and accepting a share of the responsibility for dealing with
problems that arise in the course of activities.
Engaged with issues of global importance. Students may be involved in
international projects but there are many global issues that can be acted upon locally
or nationally (for example, environmental concerns, caring for the elderly).
JAIN INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL SCHOOL

Considered the ethical implications of their actions. Ethical decisions arise in
almost any CAS activity (for example, on the sports field, in musical composition, in
relationships with others involved in service activities). Evidence of thinking about
ethical issues can be shown in various ways, including journal entries and
conversations with CAS advisors.
Developed new skills. As with new challenges, new skills may be shown in activities
that the student has not previously undertaken or in increased expertise in an
established area. Any activity that does not result in at least one of these LEARNING
OUTCOMES is NOT A CAS Activity!

10 Reasons - why the IB Diploma Programme (DP) is ideal preparation for university
It increases academic opportunity. Research*shows that DP graduates are much
more likely to be enrolled at top higher education institutions than entrants.
IB students care about more than just results. Through creativity, action, service
(CAS) you learn outside the classroom and develop emotionally and ethically as
well as intellectually.
It encourages you to become a confident and independent learner. For
example, the extended essay requires independent research through an in-depth
study.
It’s an international qualification. The DP is recognized globally by universities
and employers.
Graduates are globally minded. Language classes encourage an international
mindset, key for increasingly globalized societies.
The IB encourages critical thinking. Learn how to analyse and evaluate
issues, generate ideas and consider new perspectives.
DP students have proven time management skills. Take good study habits
and strong time management to further education and the working world.
It assesses more than examination techniques. Learn to understand, not just
memorize facts or topics and prepare for exams.
Subjects are not taught in isolation. Theory of knowledge (TOK) classes
encourage you to make connections between subjects.
It encourages breadth and depth of learning. You are able to choose courses
from six subject groups and study subjects at different levels.
