MYP Personal Project

MYP Personal Project for 10th Grade Students

The personal project provides an excellent opportunity for students to produce a truly personal and often creative product or outcome. The personal nature of the project is important; the project should revolve around a challenge that motivates and interests the individual student.

MYP Personal Project Information on the IBO website

The personal project formally assesses students’ approaches to learning (ATL) skills for self-management, research, communication, critical and creative thinking, and collaboration.

The project is made up of a process, a product and a reflective report.

1. process —ideas, criteria, developments, challenges, plans, research, possible solutions and progress reports
2. product or outcome—evidence of tangible or intangible results: what the student was aiming to achieve or create
3. report—an account of the project and its impact, to a structure that follows the assessment criteria. The report describes both the process of creating the project and an evaluation of the impact of the process on the student or their learning.

The report is assessed by the supervisor and externally moderated by the IB to ensure a globally consistent standard of excellence. Each project is awarded a final achievement grade.
