Introduction
The personal project is a mandatory process in the MYP (middles year programme) that I need to be able to start my IB diploma. For my personal project I decided to learn how to build and a longboard and then finalise my project. I thought of this project because I myself am a rider. I first tried longboard when i was 13 years old and i really liked it and since then it is one of my passions. Therefore i decided to build my own and proper longboard.
I chose this topic because I am passionate about it and it also is a way of learning new things. I will learn how to research in a deeper way than i ever did before, but i will also learn how to do things myself and how to get by it by myself. I developed this project because i want

All of them are different from each other, identities and relationship, orientations in space and time, personal and cultural expressions, scientific and technical innovation, globalisation and sustainability and fairness and development. Each of them are used for different personal projects and for mine I am using scientific and technical innovation. As i said it is the closest to my project due to the fact that it doesn’t fit the description of any other one.
In order to complete my expectations and the expectations of all my supervisors and every other person involved in my project, i will need to do my best and face obstacles whatever they are.
Before talking about the rest of my project, i need to explain you what the personal project is. According to the IB, the Personal Project is “a significant piece of work that is the product of the student's own initiative and creativity” (1). The personal project will count half my end of year grade which means it is a really serious project that i really need to take care off. My assignment isn’t just a school essay that i have to right, it also is a sentimental and personal activity that is valuable to me. By engaging myself into it, i will need to finish it in time, to sacrifice my time for it and i will need to do it even when i don't want to do it, but at least i will learn things and take form it. I will test myself up to my limits and how far i can get,

A longboard is a long surfboard look a like, which is around 35 inches long. There are different styles of longboards and heres a few of them: freeride, downhill and dancing. Each of them requires a different style of board, wheels and trucks. Some more soft and curvy and other more hard and solid. This is the reason for which i need to investigate what style of longboarding i want to create.
- How am i going to research it?
Before doing any research on what type of wood trucks and wheel i will require i need to find what style of riding i want and i will use my experience to define that. In my two years of experience i have tried a lot of different styles and only one of them has really pleased me. It is the downhill one, but first you thinking of what is downhill? That is a really easy question, downhill is when longboarders are going really fast down a long hill with turns and steep
This was a multi-year project during a time in which I was taking AP classes, playing varsity volleyball and starting up and leading a new club at my high school. Because this was such a busy time in my life, I was forced to learn how to manage my time and prioritize tasks.
...t the last year of high school would be less agonizing without a laborious issue such as a Culminating Project, to attend to. Therefore, these points have been covered: what the project is, examples of different advocators of the project, and the different viewpoints of why it is useful verses why it is not. Hopefully, this can change the ideals and opinions of the administrators and enforcers of the Senior Project, to consider what a hindrance it is.
Identify three key texts relating to your research area and briefly state how these are relevant to your research?
I faced many challenges while working on this project. Luckily, time was not one of them. The constructing of this project took me about a total of approximately eighteen hours to complete (give or take a few), obviously spread out during three weekends and a couple weekdays. Eighteen hours is a very, very rough estimate. There were days I worked for the whole day and some where I worked for a couple of hours. My parents helped me very much in the process. They understood that I had to complete this on my own, but when I was stuck or needed help, we bounced ideas off each other, which was very helpful to get my creative juices flowing.
In conclusion, the impression I got from this project was great. I had a great time seeing what I had taken notes on happen in front of my eyes. This project can helped me to understand younger people and why the act the way they do and how they develop into modern day
A project is a temporary endeavour undertaken to create a unique product or service. They are goal oriented, have a definite start and finish time, must be done within cost, schedule and quality parameters. Projects involve the coordinated undertaking of interrelated activities (Project Management: Achieving Competitive Advantage). According to Tom Peters, “Projects, rather than repetitive tasks, are now the basis for most value-added in business”. Based on this, it is clear that projects are of utmost importance to businesses in both the service and the manufacturing industries.
It features learning projects that directly relate to, are relevant to, or provide benefit to students, their families or the community.
The name of my project is gardening which is planting sunflower. I chose this project because my kindergarten’s outdoor environment space is limited. This project involved 5 years old children. The process of growing this sunflower took about two months. The project has met the objective well. The main objective of this project was experiencing the outdoor environment by the children.
Section 1: What is your topic, and why is it important to study this topic?
The subject area that our project relates to the most is Physical Education because we were attempting to improve the amount fitness by educating people and giving them options of exercises and healthy meals.
A project, I feel, is something that helps you to expand your knowledge base and adds value to your resume. Working on a project requires each and every group member to contribute their best in order to earn excellent grades. But for this, it is absolutely essential that each individual of the group is willing to coordinate with others. Each individual should work hard to make the project a success. My group consisted of 6 students who had different tastes and different style of working and they belonged to different regions of the country. It was very difficult for me to coordinate with them because I do not normally gel with people who are different than me. While our ...
Project and creative tasks: Projects are normally done collaboratively but can be done individually too. They need more time to be accomplished. Learners are involved in some kind of creative work. The task may require out of class research, they have several stages, and involve a combination of task types (Willis, 1996).
...rks. In a word, the MA experience was considered to be a bridge that combines the student learning with working skills, it would be of great help for my future career.
Project Citizen is a project that seventh-graders do annually. The students take one problem and find a way to solve it. The goals of Project Citizen are straightforward. There are four steps to Project Citizen. First, the students need to identify a problem in the school or community. Then, they research that problem. The students need to finish about twenty tasks, each related to a category of school safety. Next, they evaluate possible solutions to that problem. The solutions are put into a research paper, which is what this paper is. After that, they develop public policy ideas. These are put into a group presentation and later presented to a larger audience. The four keys to being successful in Project Citizen are to work hard, work as a team, research well, and stay organized.
Community projects are well known for giving students the opportunity to be able to express them selves and learn new tasks and responsibilities. Although, through out my community project path I found myself finding the right lace to learn and achieve the goals as well as the responsibilities and the role of the experience. Yet, the project wasn’t an easy project because I had to deal with different case mangers and different clients. However, through trying and working on my goals, I was to develop my learning experience in term of making healthy relationship with my clients.
