January 4, 2013


525,600 minutes - how will you spend them?

Welcome to 2013 and Term 2.  Our project this term will be a video project which could be used to supplement a university application.


Area of Interaction Focus
Approaches to Learning:
Communication:  Informing Others
 You independently and consistently structure ideas and arguments, both orally and in writing, in a sustained and logical way and support them with relevant examples across the Design Cycle.

You independently show awareness of the need for an effective choice of medium suited to the audience when choosing a tool to create your product/solution.

Significant Concept

The students will gain an understanding that the way you present yourself to others is important and can make a difference.


Year 11, we need to work really hard to reach our unit goal in the allotted time, but I'm sure we can do it.

It will be necessary for you to do homework.  If you would like to use the computer room at lunch time, please make sure to talk to me in advance.

Let's begin:

1. Identify the Problem - write 2 paragraphs as an introduction to your research project.  (See Investigate Template if you need guidance)

2.  Develop A Design Brief
     a. Write a sentence to introduce this section of the project.
     b. Craft 4-5 questions/areas/topics and conduct research that will help you solve your problem.

IB Learner Profile: Inquirer

Learning objectives-The student will: independently identify meaningful questions, carry out web search, select and organize appropriate sources and evaluate them.
