Extended Essay Viva Voce 2023

 

On the 6th of February 2023, the students of DP 2 started their Extended Essay Viva and they presented it to their peers, students of DP 1 and some of the teachers in our DP program. This was very important for the DP 2’s because the recording of their presentation would be sent to IB and they would ask many questions regarding their Extended Essay. This was definitely one of the harder moments in the whole DP program.



 The Extended Essay Viva is also really important for the students of DP 1 because they can understand how the structure of the Extended Essay will be, not exactly for writing the final report, but for what to focus on in their research question. The students of DP 1 were also able to hear the feedback that was given to their seniors, so they know what to look out for when they work on it.

 The Extended Essay is an integral part of the IB diploma and is not an easy task. It is very important that students get an early idea of how to form it, because time management will be difficult. As the students of DP 2 advised, start the Extended Essay as early as possible, because it is not easy.

The 3C’s of Digital Society

The subject Digital Societies is a whole new experience for all the new IBDP students. We look into Global Societies, Technology Innovation, Multimedia, Political Stakes, etc. Digital Societies are divided into several categories and organized according to the terms. During our journey in Term 1, we looked into the hardware and software, evolution of computers, malwares, security, licenses and databases.

In term 2, we are currently working on the Social and Political use of Technology, such as Home and Leisure, IT in Health, Business and learning about the philosophy and arts behind Ergonomics. Digital Societies is categorized in 3 different core elements (Content, Concept and Context). Students can increase their thinking and communication skills through various discussions with their facilitator and peers. We investigate the impacts, laws and regulations, the pros ...

TOK Inquiry

  We were given the topic of electronic cigarettes (also known as vaping) and whether or not they are bad for our health in our most recent TOK lesson. When a liquid is heated in an e-cigarette, it turns into vapors or, more precisely, aerosols that the user can inhale (thus "vaping"). These appliances heat chemicals like nicotine, marijuana, various flavorings, or other potentially hazardous compounds. Nicotine is habit-forming. While less dangerous than smoking, vaping is still not secure. You inhale an aerosol produced by heating nicotine (extracted from tobacco), flavorings, and other compounds in e-cigarettes. There are 7,000 compounds in regular tobacco cigarettes, many of which are harmful.  There is obviously cause for concern given the unfortunate and distressing examples of serious lung illness. Other negative health impacts include several of the following: Nicotine is highly addictive and can affect the developing brain, potentially harming teens and young adults....
