Revising and rewriting my CAS goals

In this post, I will be looking at my goals for CAS and changing/ improving them from last year’s goals.

• For Creativity, I plan on continuing to explore activities that are inclined toward art.
  • Last year I planned for digital art to be my main source of Creativity, but I believe that I could have improved this goal by expanding on it more – and including other forms of art as well.
  • This year as well, I will continue art but in a larger variety. 
  • Furthermore, I plan to connect these creative activities to service (as my service co-leader and I tend to make posters for service events such as Books n’ Cookies).
  • My overarching goal will be to improve my graphic designing skills and measure my progress through a comparison of my original art and latest art. 
  • Learning objectives: strength and growth, challenge and skills.

•  For Activity, I still do badminton – therefore, I still want to carry this out as a form of activity for my CAS blog. However, as I also conduct strength training through aerobics and pilates more now, I want to talk about this on my blog.
  • I plan to increase my tricep strength and stamina when working out, this will be measured by my personal statistics and documenting how I improve these areas.
  • Furthermore, in badminton, I want to refine my agility – as I still find moving sideways on short notice to be challenging.
  • Learning objectives: initiative and planning, showing perseverance and commitment.

• For Service, I plan for many engaging and exciting events to be documented in the future – as a leader of Room To Read, I plan to conduct my responsibilities as best as possible in my final year at OSC.
  • The Books N’ Cookies sessions have been a rewarding addition to our service agenda, and I think that planning these sessions and helping conduct them will be talked about here.
  • My main goal is to develop our secondhand bookstore more – with a better bookshelf and improve it so that it draws in more customers and readers.
  • Learning objectives: working collaboratively with others, global engagement.

Another interesting event this year would be the CAS project, as of right now I am not sure what I will be doing – however, I do know my project will likely take part in the Creativity or Service aspect. I look forward to expanding on this more!
