How I grew as a learner?

As I am in Colombo Britanico, approaching the next years of the IB diploma, I am confident the personal project its the perfect opportunity to prepare several skills and IB attributes; all, of which are fundamental for and IB international student. Throughout the entire process, I strengthen attributes such as Inquirer, for the research stage where the three inquiry questions were resolved; asking me each time what else should I investigate. Moreover, communicators, when meeting new people, demanded me to handle a clear message or retrieve and important piece of information/contribution; for example the interviews, donators, rural school managers, between others. Furthermore, principled, when acting with integrity and honesty, with a strong sense of fairness, justice after recollecting all of the donors’ contributions. At last, reflective, as every action, investigation, or idea requested it, leading me to improve to write a reflection of my learning process each time. On the whole, the personal project was the vehicle that paved the way for me to developed fundamental skills of every area of knowledge, IB attributes, and making me grow as a learner. Ultimately, the personal project inaugurated the project Pages of Hope.

I could strengthen my understanding in my global context, fairness and, development, exploring the strand of access to equal opportunities. Furthermore, I develop certain skills, which helped me to grow as a learner. The aftermath of my personal project fulfilled the goals for the global context and its particular strand. At the moment I gave the youth access to a library, as it might provide the starting point from where the school must thrive. Besides, despite the economic backgrounds of every child, I approached them to a learning zone, full of opportunities for a valuable education.


The personal project was for me a great opportunity to deepen my knowledge about how to develop a foundation for the education of low resource schools in rural communities. I started by gaining knowledge in the legal and financial requirements to create a charitable foundation, with an extensive research process, and expert interviews. Following, I could comprehend the educational needs of low-income schools in rural communities, by visiting first hand the institutions. Thereafter, I learned how to successfully manage and maintain a foundation, with interviews, research, experimentation, and the establishment of the product.
