IB Personal Project (MYP) External Assessment Exemplar

Demonstrates strong media literacy by consulting diverse sources—interviews, articles and videos—and synthesising key findings effectively.

Shows effective collaboration by adapting language and content to local cultural contexts, with clear examples of respecting participants’ needs.

Limited specifics on how media literacy was applied: missing citations of particular sources and criteria for judging their credibility.

ATL skills applied to the product lack detail on how they impacted the quality or development process.

Clear articulation of the intended product as three art trainings in a daycare, providing a focused and tangible project outcome.

Timeline groups all activities under a single phase without clear dates, roles or resource allocation.

Initial interview planning lacks a deadline and does not link steps to specific success criteria.

Aesthetic and environment criteria are descriptive but not measurable, lacking quantifiable targets or observable indicators.

The success criteria table is empty, so there are no defined measures to evaluate the product’s success.

Planning covers only the initial phase and omits delivery, feedback collection and finalisation steps.

Finalisation step outlines questionnaires but does not specify how responses will be analysed to support the success criteria.

Insightful self-evaluation on colour consistency, leading to actionable next steps.

Meaningful personal reflection on growth in empathy and communication, supported by specific anecdotes.

Evidence of long-term impact through teacher adoption of art activities and qualitative feedback.

Proactive suggestion of weekly follow-up reports to sustain application of training.

Attention to detail in identifying font inconsistencies and commitment to adopting a style guide.

Reflection notes the need for buffer time between sessions but does not integrate this into the initial schedule.

Colour choice reflections are not linked to participant feedback or survey data, making it hard to measure their effectiveness.
