The Personal Project

The personal project is the culminating activity of the MYP programme and for students in Grade 10 it is a rich opportunity for them to complete an extended piece of work that challenges their own creativity and thinking about issues of concern to themselves.

The personal project can take many forms, for example:

  • An original work of art (visual, dramatic, or performance)
  • A written piece of work on a special topic (literary, social, psychological, or anthropological)
  • A piece of literary fiction
  • An original science experiment
  • An invention or specially designed object or system
  • The presentation of a developed business, management, or organizational plan, a special event, or the development of a new student or community organization.

The personal project also includes the completion of a written report which documents the students personal learning journey and enables them to reflect on the challenges they have faced along the way.

The  personal project presentation evening will be on 06 March 2013 This event is open to the whole ISU community.
