Official IB Result

IB Grade: 7

Criteria A: A: Research question and inquiry

3/4

Criteria StrandsPro

A.1Research question and inquiry

Good

Criteria Feedback

You identify a relevant environmental issue and connect it clearly to meat consumption in a school context.
Your research question is focused, measurable, and tied to a defined population and time frame.
You provide enough background to show why the topic matters rather than presenting it as a simple opinion.

Some of the background research is not integrated closely enough with how your calculator-based measure works.
The link between the chosen evidence and the exact wording of the research question could be made more precise.

Criteria B: B: Strategy

3/4

Criteria StrandsPro

B.1Strategy

Good

Criteria Feedback

You identify a relevant strategy of reducing meat consumption to lower environmental impact.
You explain that the strategy creates real tensions across environmental, economic, cultural, and political perspectives.
You show awareness that sustainability proposals can face resistance because they affect livelihoods, habits, and identity.

The strategy would be stronger with a more concrete example such as a school policy, campaign, or national case.
Some of the discussion remains broad rather than showing exactly how the strategy would work in practice.
