CREATIVITY

CAS is not about fulfilling a requirement, it's about growing as a person. 

 

Anything that involves creative thought or action can be included. You can complete a variety of small creative adventures, but you must develop one larger CAS project within your 18 months of participation.

 

Please don't use any project that you are completing for a Walden class. You are free to use creative taskes you are involved with in a club or as a part of an extracurricular enterprise—such as a dance team or ceramics class, but you must be stretching yourself beyond what you already know and can do.
