IBDP Student's Interaction with Cybersecurity Expert

 

On Tuesday, November 15th, 2022. DP Y1 student Ariyaan Ahmed's father, Mr. Tanmay Ahmed visited the campus to conduct our first Parent - Student Workshop. Mr. Tanmay has been working as a specialist in the field of cybersecurity for years now. He is currently working for the Bangladesh government's cybersecurity division. During this interactive workshop, Mr. Tanmay discussed and interacted with the student's knowledge of Information Technologies and Global Societies (ITGS), a group 3 subject from our IB curriculum taught by Miss Irtifa Ali. Mr. Tanmay discussed why the knowledge of (ICT) or information communications technology is essential to understand in this developing era, where the advancements of technology are constantly changing the world we live in. With the many welfare technological advancements it brings, there are several downsides it brings, such as cybercrime. Mr. Tanmay discussed strategies our government is planning on implementing to fight against cybercrimes and is constantly updating the cybersecurity act of Bangladesh.





I believe this parent-student workshop had a very beneficial exposure to the students of IBDP and especially Miss Irtifa’s ITGS students. I believe more parents could step up to the occasion just like Mr. Tanmay has, as a major part of the learning we have in Ib is with analyzing real-world examples. I’d like to thank Mr. Tanmay Ahmed on behalf of everyone at the Australian International School, my respected peers and students, respected teachers, and respected coordinators.

Exploring Biodiversity: IB DP Year 2 Biology Students Conduct Line Transect Activity

  Recently, IB DP Year 2 biology students embarked on an exciting line transect activity on the new school field to study plant species and soil properties. This innovative method of identifying organisms within an ecosystem involves systematic sampling at regular intervals to observe and record biodiversity along a line.   Using a 10-meter rope, students examined organisms every 2 meters along the transect, identifying two plant species: Cornus serica L. and Cenchrus echinatus L. . Despite aiming to collect five soil samples for testing pH, salinity, and total dissolved solids (TDS), the experiment was interrupted by rain, limiting the collection to three samples. Another challenge was the presence of bricks in the soil, which prevented digging at one of the sites. In the lab, students measured TDS levels ranging from 18.2 to 22 ppm, salinity from 17 to 18, and pH between 7.63 and 7.68. This hands-on activity provided valuable insights into the local ecosystem within the...

Inquiry on Smart Farming: Designing a Greener Tomorrow

On the 2 nd week of November, IB DP Year 1 students have come together to work in an interdisciplinary project regarding sustainable agriculture practices.
