petermcelyea Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 I have already written my Economics EE on what factors have caused public transportation ridership to decline in the US in recent years . My Math IA is currently on whether population density affects the ridership of public transportation in the US. As you can see, it is not the same topic but it is very similar and I was wondering if I was allowed to use writing from my EE (my own) and incorporate it into my Math IA. Would it count as duplication? Anything helps so thank you in advance. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VB1 Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) Hi there! In the IB Extended Essay Guide for Economics, the IB states: An important note on "double-dipping" "Students must ensure that their EE does not overlap significantly with any other work they are submitting for the Diploma Programme. For example, the data gathered for an economics EE should not be used to fulfil the requirements of internal assessment tasks in other subjects." Based on this, I think you can to a certain extent, but it's better not reuse large chunks of text from your EE to your IA. I think you should consult your teacher about this just to be sure. p.s I have attached the guide for your reference EE-Econonomics Guideline IB.pdf Edited November 2, 2020 by VB1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
