The Personal Project is a requirement to pass the IB, MYP Grade 10 and enter IB program.
According to the IB: “The personal project is a significant body of work produced over an extended period. It is a product of your own initiative and should reflect your experience of the MYP. The personal project holds a very important place in the programme.” (MYP Personal Project)
This project is supposed to be based on your interests and reflect all the knowledge you have achieved in the MYP program. From my experience it comes with a lot of responsibility and work.
What you should actually do in the personal projects is up to you. You can either create something like a painting or a computer game, or you can learn a new skill like horse riding. To …show more content…
I asked Ms. Dittrich, the performing arts teacher, about the most efficient way to record my music piece without any background noise. She recommended me using an electronic recording program and to make sure there were no background noises while I was playing.
I also got some really useful information from Ms. Mennie, the computer teacher, about the program that I can use to make my multimedia on. Using her advice I decided to make my multimedia on a PowerPoint.
Websites were useful to me as well, specially for the parts in my multimedia where I had a doubt on or when I wanted to know a fact about healthy eating without needing to search an entire book. However I did not focus my information source from websites because I was not sure that they are reliable or not.
These sources helped me shape some of the successes criteria that I have included. I used the information I got from the books to write down what is needed to be included in my multimedia. The advice I got from the teachers also helped me a lot by making it easier to create a better product to reach my goal. My research also changed how I think about healthy eating and even affected my …show more content…
I am hopping that the children really act on what they said and remember it until the end of their lives. They will be the future generation on earth and as junk food production had increased it is really important to choose the healthy food rather than the unhealthy and have a good impact on their selves. Just like my chosen Global Context is related to the impact of decision making in human kind.
Reflecting
Successes of the product against the criteria
My final product, which was the Multimedia, was made based on some criteria that I designed to follow. In my opinion the product was done fairly well. There were some minor parts, which I could have improved, but over all I am confident on it.
The first thing that I would have liked to be done better is the music. I think the music I have composed is more suitable for adults and is not very interesting for children. The other piece of information I would like to add to my product is what will actually happen inside the body in terms of biology if we eat healthy or unhealthy food, but I was afraid I would go over the time limit mentioned in the successes criteria.
I think succeeded in achieving my goal because in my questionnaire the questions I asked after the presentation
