Frequently asked questions
Do coding and technology count for CAS?
They can. Write the code yourself (or with your team) and keep your version history: commits, screenshots and bug lists are clear evidence. Your CAS coordinator decides what counts at your school.
Can I use one of these ideas as it is?
Use it as a starting point. Shape it around a real need or interest at your school or in your community, plan it with others where you can, and agree it with your CAS coordinator before you start.
