Okay, I realise that not many people here must do Philosophy given the general lack of posts about it, but I was wondering if anybody felt like sharing any useful links or tips about revision, resources etc. Particularly with regard to set texts A few places/things I've found very useful: IB Philosophy at Pearson College Page http://peernet.lbpc.ca/Philosophy/contents.htm Notes on: Philosophy of Religion, Political Philosophy, Plato's Republic, Nietzsche's On the Genealogy of Morals, Rousseau's Origin of Inequality (Social Contract), Solipsism, Descartes' Meditations (summary) and various smaller topics. Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy http://plato.stanford.edu/ Reso…

Hi everyone, We were asked to think of an IA topic in Computer Science, so I came up with an idea but I'm not sure whether it is acceptable. I thought I could make an application that helps IB students manage their CAS portfolio. So basically, there will be a database storing proposal and reflection forms, and students can fill it up and all this data will be stored in a database. Is this topic acceptable? Thank You.

I am wondering if anyone has done or has heard of someone doing video editing as their ITGS project. Basically my IA would be a commercial because finding a client would most likely be a product based company. This would help my school is tiny and basically I'm forced to do this class unless I want to do music or art.

Hello everyone! I was wondering if my ITGS IA product could be a brochure because when I read one of the PDF IB files it says that for Desktop Publishing it is "ideally 12 pages"... so that got me confused. Or should I just make a magazine? Any idea, suggestions or tips? Thanks soooo much in advance. My client's problem is that the customer base is limited so he wants more people to be aware of his business (which is a library). Let's say the IT solution or product is a magazine..... should I just use pictures of books and include descriptions there as a way to inform people about the library or wouldn't that be counted as advertisement or solving the client's problem?

Hello. I am having trouble picking the Group 3 choice for IB. The options are History and Geography. I do not know which one to go with. When I asked people's opinions of which should I take for IB, most of them, including my parents, suggested that I should take geography since it is the easier subject. However, I dislike geography and I tolerate history. Also, taking IB History would grant me two 12th grade university credits (Year 1: CLN4UE, Year 2: CHY4UE), while IB Geography only grants me one (Year 1: CGD3ME, Year 2: CGW4UE). Also I am not a social science person, which means I can't decide which social science should I go with. I do not know which university progr…

Hey there! I have a question regarding the MLI. Is it really a big deal if the chosen pieces are inappropriate? So I was looking at the criteria, and the only criterion that affects the chosen pieces is criterion A. The rest are independent, or so it seems (it's never explicitly stated). For instance, criterion A tells us that "This criterion concerns the student’s choice of musical examples. A student should choose one (or more) musical piece(s) from each of two identifiable and distinct musical cultures. These examples must also share two or more significant musical links that can be investigated in detail.". However, if we look at the grading, and s…

Good Afternoon/Morning Computer Science Students, Hopefully everyone is enjoying their weekend..... Just a question regarding the pseudocode conventions (Topic 4) surrounding switch-cases. I have had a look at the IB Comp Sci guide and "Approved Notation for Developing Pseudocode" and have not found anything regarding it. Does anyone know if we can use switch-cases in pseudocode? If not, maybe I'll just have to go back to if, else if, else if, else if, else. Oh well. Thank you very much in advance.

Hi everybody, I have recently been assigned the task; to do my philosophy essay So far I have not thought much to talk about but I know for a fact that I want to base it off of Albert Camus's Absurdism, but at the same time debate with John-Paul Sartre's Existentialism. My philosophical question I thought of is: Should suicide be an option? or this question: Why shouldn't we commit suicide [I like this one more] I would really appreciate any; ideas which I could contribute to this IA as I am currently experiencing Writer's block. Thank you so much guys! here's my stimulus:

If you know any good case studies for geography HL/SL please post a name of the place, year, and what kind of issue it considered. That way we can all get a 7! My example: Kobe, Japan, Earthquake, 1995 (this is enough cause everyone has google, and looking for a specific issue is much easier, finding examples without any names is tough as you may know)

So im 4 months into IB and I've taken IB math HL. In these 4 months we've had constant tests in which I've barely managed to get a 3. Im considering shifting to SL but many unis prefer math hl students for computer science courses. I've shifted to IB from CBSE where i managed to get an overall of 97% in math. Despite this i am unable to do math HL. Do all universities require math hl for computer courses?

For our internal assessments (e.g. Biology), will you fail IB if you don't do in-text citations, but you did do the works cited at the end? I have a whole list of works cited on the last page but no in-text citations throughout it. It is difficult to go back and find each sentence to in-text citate it. In-text citations are a pain and it's giving me anxiety! Please help! Thank you very much!

Wow, I haven't been on this site since I started MYP. It's great to be back here, this time as an IB student!! So we were recently introduced to our Global Politics IA (Personal Engagement Activity), and I'm semi-lost as this is a newly offered course at my school and no one's ever taught it before. My teacher isn't being that helpful in terms of the expectations and all, but I have a broad idea of what I need to do. We're expected to have proposals ready in the next couple of week and present them to our teacher for approval. As this is a relatively new course offered by the IB itself, there aren't that many resources available for help or inspiration. I feel as tho…

Hi, guys! With my mock exams coming up soon, and my grades not getting where I'd like them to be, it's really made me realise how the lack of training my teacher has is affecting the class itself. She's an excellent history teacher, but I'm afraid I can't say the same for Global Politics, and even the best in our class agrees with me. So I was wondering if anyone had a teacher trained in the subject whom I could contact for marking of the past papers I'm practicing and some additional tips. Thanks!

As you know, for the criterion E of ITGS IA, it says I must use at least three advanced techniques from the list. I am making a website, so I think I must focus on the "multimedia" section. The website was created using WIX. I first wrote about html coding, where I created tables to introduce the products. HTML was also used for paragraphs and introducing the company as well. Secondly, I wrote about Integration of components using advanced features from other applications, that is embedding google maps using html. Lastly, I indicated the Proficient integration of the different elements of multimedia. Here, I talked about creating slideshows and adding various effects usin…

Hello, I have a little issue, but I'm not sure if it can be a problem. So, for my Computer Science IA, I am developing an online website. In order to visit this online website, you can visit a particular URL and you can find the website. My problem is, that the URL contains my name. Not the full name though. Let's say my name is "Frederick", then the URL contains the word "Fred". This shows in criterion D, which is the video. So while watching the video of me showing my application in the video, if one looks at the link they would see that it contains an shortened version of my first name in it. Would this be a problem? I can't seem to find a definit…

Hello, I am almost done with my CS IA, and I have a question. The guide says that we are supposed to reference all our sources in criterion C. However, should I reference any pictures I used there too? If so, how? I know how referencing works in general, but in this case it's a bit weird/confusing. Also, I used a ton of sources for little things, consulting stackoverflow forums etc. Should I reference one by one individually? I think this is unrealistic, as many of them are just simple things that anyone could think of. Others are things that I didn't even show at my Criterion C, because they weren't even worth to put them in. They were that simple. Is it okay i…
