LibGuides: MYP Personal Project Guide: Reporting the Project

Project Report Formats

The Personal Project report should show your engagement with your project by summarizing your experiences and the skills used or developed throughout the process.

The report should be presented in identifiable sections following the objectives -

A: Planning;

B: Applying Skills:

C: Reflecting.

It can be submitted in different formats according to student learning preferences, strengths and availability of resources.

The table below show the available formats and lengths. Whatever format is used, it must address all strands of the assessment criteria and be supported by evidence from the process journal.
