DP Year 2 Collaborative Science Project Presentation: Exploring Water As The Basis Of Life

 On the 8th of September, the DP-2 students got to present their findings related to the ‘Collaborative Science Project’, an interdisciplinary study combining the science subjects of biology, environmental systems and societies, chemistry and physics. The students utilised the umbrella theme of water under the topic of ‘evaluating water safety through purification and testing’.




Through the conducted experiments, students assessed parameters such as pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), salinity, and water hardness. These elements are crucial indicators of water quality and have far-reaching implications for ecosystems, human health, and environmental sustainability. Their findings highlighted variations in water quality across different locations, emphasising the importance of monitoring and maintaining safe water standards.


This project is more than just a school assignment; it is a reminder of the critical issues surrounding water quality worldwide. Water is a vital resource, yet many communities across the globe face challenges with contamination and scarcity. The collaborative science project underscores the importance of clean water access and the need for continued scientific inquiry into water quality management.




In a world where water sources are increasingly under threat from pollution, climate change, and overuse, our project serves as a small but significant step towards understanding and protecting this essential resource. The skills and knowledge we’ve gained through this project equip us to contribute to global efforts in ensuring that safe, clean water is available to all.

Inspiring Minds: A Journey of Education, Life, and Gratitude

 Education is not only restricted to textbooks and classrooms; it covers a larger knowledge of life, purpose, and the pursuit of achievement. Australian International School Dhaka, promotes complete growth while inspiring pupils to attain their best potential is of highest significance. In a recent engagement project, the school invited Dr. Shahpar Nahrir, a parent of IBDP 1 students Maryam and Amina Bushra, who discussed her life experiences, opinions on education, and important life advice. Dr. Nahrir, having a background in neurological surgery at Evercare Hospital, wants to teach students the significance of hard effort, persistence, and thankfulness in their path towards making a significant effect on society.  The Australian International School's dedication to offering a well-rounded education goes beyond academic differences. Recognizing the relevance of real-life experiences and ideas, the school regularly invites guest speakers to share their tales and viewpoints. Dr...

ESS Experiment on Soil

  As the new term begins, so does a new experiment for ESS. These experiments are really fun for students as they can gain lab work experience and are beneficial because of the lab report that has to be done following it. For DP1, we are starting the chapter of Soil Systems and Society. Soil is a necessity on Earth and one of the roles is that it helps to grow plants. Our experiment was to analyze two samples of soils, garden soil and roadside soil. With these two samples we found its pH, moisture, water capacity and texture. It is important to understand these qualities in soil because when they are in a certain condition, it is the best for growing plants.   This experiment was very messy, but it was enjoyable. The students were divided into three groups and it was a new experience for everyone. Although we have done experiments before, we did not use some of the apparatus used in this experiment, so it was a new challenge for us. Equipment such as the dropper, glass rod...

Understanding the Role of Propaganda

  A few days ago in English class we had a task of creating posters on propaganda. The aim was to understand the role of propaganda in spreading views and how it shapes people’s mindset.     What is propaganda? Propaganda is communication that is primarily used to influence or persuade an audience to further an agenda, which may or may not be objective and may include selectively presenting facts to encourage a particular synthesis or perception, or using loaded language to elicit an emotional rather than a rational response to the information being presented.    International propaganda aims to influence global audiences' attitudes and ideas, modify their connection with their home governments, or offer an alternative view of their own and the world's conditions.   The novel we are studying in class, 1984 has a key theme which is propaganda. In the novel, the Party's main and most successful weapon is utilized to deceive, confuse, and contro...
