Embla Frydenlund Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Hi,I want to learn how to play the violin for creativity, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to take lessons. However, I have used YouTube to learn to play the piano, and that worked out fine. How can I document my progress without a teacher? Do I need some kind of approval from a leader, or is it enough if I write up the amount of hours myself and then show my cas-coordinator my progress through videos/sound recordings? I really want to do this for cas, so any help to convince my coordinator that this is a good idea will be highly appreciated! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
avalinelegato Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 The rules for each school may vary, but I think you'll need to have a supervisor who is not a family member. Maybe you can ask one of your teachers, e.g. a music teacher or any other teacher that has some sort of knowledge on music? Perhaps you can update your supervisor/teacher on the pieces you'll be practicing on, and have a recording each week to show your supervisor as proof that you are practicing at home. You can also have a Soundcloud account (or something similar) so that you can upload your recordings. This way, you can compare how you've done/progressed throughout the period of this CAS activity, which might be helpful during reflections. Also, ask your CAS coordinator to make sure that this is allowed, as the rules for CAS in each school may vary. Best of luck! 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
