Cooking Something Sweet!

Cooking is a very important skill that we all must learn, so that we do not have to live off of instant noodles for our university lives. Plus, it is always impressive when one can cook. This week in our infamous cooking class, the DP-1 and DP-2 students have created something tiny, yet sweet. A traditional Bengali dish called “Gajorer Laddu'' or basically a dessert made from carrots. Healthy yet delicious? Win-win! (Maybe not that delicious, but it’s carrots!)

 





Making this dish was quite a joyous experience for both the DP-1 and DP-2 students. A simple yet mouth-watering dessert like this can be made anytime with very little effort. All the DP students worked collaboratively to make this dessert such as cutting the carrots, adding sugar and milk and even molding them into tiny little circles, while adding small chunks of pistachios. Cooking is essential for us all as it will help us be more independent in the future when we are not near the comforts of our home. This skill can help us learn so much more as well as explore other traditional cuisines and build an international mindset. Cooking falls under the “service” strand in CAS as it requires us to make and provide to others. It also helps us, students, to enjoy the joy of cooking and making traditional cuisines.

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 cy...

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. The students had the opportunity to learn about the digital world, its evolution, and its impact on our societies. 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 ...

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...
