The first phase of your Personal Project will be planning, and this will also be the first part of your Report. Here are the assessment criteria:
For Criterion A, the student:
states a learning goal and explains the connection between personal interest(s) and that goal
states their intended product and presents multiple appropriate, detailed success criteria for the product
presents a detailed plan for achieving the product and all of its associated success criteria.
You already thought about your inspiration & learning goals and have been doing your research to meet your learning goals.
You already defined what your product / outcome will be and created your specifications / success criteria and designed a test and a four level rubric.
Now you will...
This is a record of the development process: it records actions taken during the creation of the product as directed by the plan, reflecting any modifications of the original plan.
You should submit a product plan (including any revisions, refinements or further development) and a record of actions taken during its execution as an appendix to the project report. The report should reference these extracts as evidence for achievement in this strand.
You will benefit from referencing research in your plan. If you're able to reference how you incorporate certain pieces of research, it helps demonstrate that you have a stronger, more mapped out plan.
