My educational perspectives

The AIMs of the ACTIVITY are
To help you to understand the basis of your choice
To speed up the process of your self-determination
To share the information within the IBDP community

AIMs of YOUR PRESENTATIONS
are to demonstrate
How well you are informed of the educational possibilities foreign universities suggest you
How well-grounded and deliberate your way to build the educational trajectory is
The level of your self-determination in the sphere of your professional development

The GOALS of your presentation
are to make the audience know
Why did you choose this or that direction, university..
Your logic, how you understand your educational plan
All the information required (see below) about your choice

About the content
Presentations should include the following information:

Tell the audience about your educational future
А (personal aspect):
Sphere of your professional interest (explain, why you find it interesting, what do you like in it?)
Name 1-3 universities, strong side of which corresponds to your educational preferences
Find out the list of the requirements the universities (faculties) set for IB candidates

What should you do?
to enter one of the universities you like:
What exams to pass (explain about each university and faculty), what is the lowest passing score (for IB candidates),
What subjects and on what level you need to study in 11-12 IBDP, in order to meet the requirements

Final recommendations
Try to make your presentation simple, short (avoid long sentences) and clear (use familiar vocabulary)
Think of what to put on a slide and what to say orally (you know, it’s rather stupid when smb puts a huge text and starts reading it from the beginning to the very end, despite the audience is not blind)
Ask your classmate, friend or parent to listen and to watch your presentation, ask him or her for advice – what to improve, to change, to shorten.
Don’t worry – be happy!
Use planning techniques, e.g. Draw a logic of your presentation on a big sheet of paper first, or create an empty draft of your presentation file with headlines only and then develop it slide by slide.
