IB Global Politics SL Internal Assessment Example

The student clearly identified a substantive political issue and explained why it matters in the Kenyan context.

The student connected the topic to real human-rights concerns, which gave the project a strong sense of purpose.

The student used engagement with relevant participants to support the focus of their investigation.

The issue stated on the title page does not fully match the research question and body of the report.

The justification for why each interviewee was selected could be more specific.

The student could explain more clearly how the interview design supported the exact question they were trying to answer.

The student shows evidence of a planned research and engagement process through interview preparation and source selection.

The student included both institutional and lived perspectives, which indicates thoughtful planning.

The student brought together interview material and secondary sources in a way that shows the process had some structure.

The way the research evolved is not explained clearly enough.

The report does not fully show how the interview responses shaped later stages of the investigation.

The missing state/police perspective leaves the process less complete than it could be.
