A
fundamental part of the CaseNEX approach is our unique 5-step
method, a matrix for approaching complex situations, understanding
cause and effect relationships, and exploring multiple solutions
to challenging problems. GEAR UP facilitators are trained
to use the five-step method to help students gain the insight
and analytical skills to effectively address their own challenges.

Carlos' mother is a little too enthusiastic
about his college plans, while Alicia's mom doesn't
want her to go to school at all. Meanwhile, Susan
is devastated when she hears back from the colleges
she applied to.
NOTE: This case is part
of a series. Prior to viewing this case, students
would have "met" these
characters and become familiar with who they are
and the issues they face. |
