ManageBac

[dessskris]

Managebac is something that COULD be really useful, but isnt right now because we just transitioned into it

I'm sure that the year below us is probably getting used to it, but for my year it just seems to complicate things...and makes it more work for us IB students to document our activities.

actually same here, even though we don't go to the same school. my batch is the first batch using ManageBac and we still HAVE to do the hard copies, so it's just adding the workload! anyway we still don't know how to log the hours each meeting so we still have to write word documents containing reflections etc... it's not making things easier. and I actually see that it's very useful as there are sections for EE, TOK and every subject but noone really use them. it's sad. meh.

My teachers keep on mentioning it, but no one (me included) hasn't gotten round to using it yet. Haven't done any big pieces of work yet, so nothing worth submitting onto ManageBac.

Although, I'm probably not using much because my school just started to use Edmodo.

We also use managebac, I think that it is indeed good, (compared to handing in physical evidence e.g. photos) but it is quite a clunky website.

For instance, the hours system is not very good - if you enter a CAS project when you first start it, it asks how many hours you have completed, so you have to guess how many you'll do. If you do it at the end, it asks for the date of start, which can get lost.

However I am glad I don't have to hand in a slip saying I've been doing portuguese lessons or summen like that.

Damn, I've used a lot of connective here.. EE is getting to my head!

I think it's amazing. Though that's because I also have a blog I write my reflections on.

YES my school loves it. I do all my CAS reflections on there.
