The Personal Project
The IB-MYP Personal Project is the culminating project of the Middle Years Programme. It is a significant body of work on a unique topic that is chosen by the student. The Personal Project reflects the student's experience in the Middle Years Programme. Students produce a creative piece of work of their choice and through that piece they demonstrate the skills they have developed through the Middle Years Programme. Students investigate and focus on a theme,topic or issue that is closely connected to one of the five areas of interaction.
The Personal Project offers students a great deal of flexibility and allows for individual expression. It truly is a rich opportunity for students to complete an extended piece of work that challenges their own creativity and thinking about issues of concern to them.
Many students discover that completing the personal project is excellent preparation for further studies. Projects may take many forms such as: creating an original piece af art, writing a piece of ficition, designing an original science experiment, inventing something, learning a new skill, organizing and planning a charity event or developing a business plan.
At Carson Graham Secondary work on the Personal Project begins in the Spring of Grade 9 and is completed in the Spring of Grade 10. Students work on the project outside of regular class time; however, there is support and guidance provided for each student through a teacher supervisor. Students meet with their supervisor regularly to discuss their project. |
