Some Product Examples

Made by a 10th grader for his MYP personal project. Ali Ayaz Gajani The International School Karachi, Pakistan.


This is my Product on Obesity for the IB MYP Personal Project. It was animated using only PowerPoint, and converted with Windows Movie Maker. The background music used is a section from Amsterdam by Coldplay.
Gonçalo Soares


For IB MYP Personal Project I created a Music Video for What I've Done by Linkin Park


And one more "The Message of the Student is...."

Resources on CD

I intend to put the PP Student/Supervisor Guide, Timeline and necessary forms on a CD and give that to students rather than print off loads of booklets.
Students will also be able to access these from the student MYP site in school, so can always print them if they want. The saving would be about 36 pages x approx 35 students and 35 supervisors - so quite a bit of paper.
Is this a good idea?

Why have this blog?

28th May is when the G9 students are introduced to the PP. This is the first time I will try to use a blog as both a resource base and a focal point for discussing their PP. As supervisors come on board they can be added to the mix, and hopefully the space will develop as a real channel for information, communication and help.
