IB Global Politics SL Internal Assessment Example

The student clearly identifies a focused political issue and explains why it matters through the lens of human rights and state power.

The student connects the project to key Global Politics concepts in a way that gives the inquiry a clear political purpose.

The political issue named on the cover does not match the research question and report, which weakens coherence.

The missing interview is noted, but its impact on the project design is not fully explained.

The student demonstrates a clear research and engagement process through planned interviews and a sustained effort to gather evidence.

The student chose interviewees with direct relevance to oversight, human rights, and lived experience, which gives the project a credible foundation.

The student uses both interview material and secondary sources, showing that their inquiry draws on more than one type of evidence.

The selection of interviewees is relevant, but the overall process is not fully integrated or methodologically balanced.

The missing perspective is acknowledged, but the student does not explain how they compensated for that gap.

There is little explanation of how the interview process shaped later stages of the inquiry.
