Final Report

The MYP personal project report demonstrates a student’s engagement with his or her personal project by summarizing the experiences and skills recorded throughout the process. The report should be presented in identifiable sections following the MYP personal project objectives— planning, applying skills, and reflecting. The report must include evidence for all the strands of all criteria.

04

Final Report

The format of the report for the personal project can vary depending on the resources available and the interests of the students. Students should take into consideration learning preferences, personal strengths and available resources when deciding on the best format for the report. The ability to communicate clearly and concisely is essential to demonstrate the elements of the report and reach the highest levels of the criteria. The student’s supervisor is responsible for providing guidance on the format of the report. Students may submit their report and evidence in any combination of documents and recordings that fits within the limits.
