Year 11 - Where are you on your project?
Have you handed in your PLAN (Criterion C) yet?
Let's take a few minutes to look at a calendar to see what deadlines and committments the next 3 week hold;-)

On to CREATE - Criterion D - Maximum 6 points

Students are expected to document, with a series of photographs or a video and a dated record, the process of making their product/solution, including when and how they use tools, materials and techniques. Make a process journal, include printscreens.

Students are expected to follow their plan, to evaluate the plan and to justify any changes they make to the plan while they are creating the product/solution.

To get a 6 the student: competently uses appropriate techniques and equipment. The student follows the plan and justifies any modifications made, resulting in a product/solution of appropriate quality using the resources available.

Learning objective: Use a range of appropriate techniques and equipment competently, follow the plan to produce the product/solution.

Year 11 - it all starts with a plan;-) Plan - Criterion C Maximum 6 points

According to MYP Technology, "Students are expected to construct a plan to create their chosen product/solution that has a series of logical steps, and that makes effective use of resources and time.

Students are expected to evaluate the plan and justify any modifications to the design."


To get a 5/6: The student produces a plan that contains a number of detailed, logical steps that describe the use of resources and time. The student critically evaluates the plan and justifies any modifications to the design.

Ideas: Make use of Gantt charts, consider appropriate resources, consider problem areas and make any necessary adjustments.

Please look at the examples for ideas;-)

Learning objectives:
1. construct a plan to create the product/solution that has a series of logical steps
2. construct a plan to create the product/solution that makes effective use of resources and time
3. evaluate the plan and justify any modifications to the design
