This workshop is based on the MYP Personal project guide, and it is intended to guide MYP practitioners towards a deeper understanding of the personal project as a meaningful culmination of student´s journey in the MYP. You will conduct a group inquiry that will enable you to explore the different stages of the personal project to gain a first-hand understanding of its constructivist inquiry-based nature. You will also discover the importance of creating environments that are conducive to student learning and reflection in addition to develop strategies that support the implementation of the personal project at your school. Through a practical approach, participants will understand the positive impact the personal project has on the school community by making the programme philosophy visible and fostering school growth and ongoing development.
