English

In English class, we do two major assignments that link with Indonesian artist/authors. One of the assignment is making an essay about how Indonesian artists/authors affected Indonesian culture. The second assignment was to make an opinion speech based on the essay that we have written. I choose this essay as the work sample because this is the major assignment for the quarter. The score that I got is 7/8 for both criteria assessed (criteria C and D). I feel satisfy with what I have achieve this quarter and hoping to make more improvement for the following quarters. This sample relate to the aspect of the IB learner profile which is ‘inquirers’ because we are supposed to do research and when doing research, we will came up with different curiosity (the things that we need to cover or things that we want to know). By this way, writing an essay relates to the IB learner profile Inquirers.

Science

Science this quarter is somehow mixed up due to the facility that we have. We are supposed to have an experiment about the properties of water but then, the science lab was renovated so the experiment was kind-a postponed. When we are waiting for the room, we learn about DNA and had one assignment, which is to make an essay about DNA profiling and link it to Cambodia. After some confusion, we finally had the chance to run our experiment in two-class period. Not only doing it, we also had to make a lab report in the end. I choose my DNA profiling essay as the work sample because this quarter, we learn more about DNA instead of the properties of water. This essay is mark for criteria A and B but I personally do not know my score because we have not get it back. I choose this as my work sample because DNA is the major topic that we cover this quarter. I have put my effort to the essay and hoping to see good result. This work relate to the IB learner profile ‘inquirers’ because we are using our researching skills to find information about DNA profiling. The research leads me to be more curios to explore more about DNA profiling because it is something interesting for me.

Design Technology (DT)

In Design Technology (DT) class, we are supposed to promote Indonesian textile in our own way. The way of promotion that I choose is to make a poster and several possible design of how to use the cloth. The province that I got is Lampung. I find this assignment interesting and challenging but gladly I could finish my work. I have submitted the first three criteria (A, B, C) and got my predicted grade for it. For criteria A, I got a 4/6 while for criteria B and C I got a 5/6. This score is quite satisfying for me and I hope I could improve it for the final grade. Therefore, this is the poster result of my work done this quarter. I chose this poster because it is the result of my product. This work links to the IB learner profile ‘inquirers’ because before I can finish up with my final result, I also need to do some investigation at first. In the investigation process, it includes researching skills that uses different kind of guiding questions that leads us through the research process.

Introduction

Hey! This is my digital portfolio. First, my name is Jessica from grade 10.3b. Well, here is grade ten. This year, my homeroom teacher is Mrs. Diane. One thing that is different in grade 10 is personal project (PP) but this is not a part of the subjects in school because we need to do it at our own time. The focus of this digital portfolio for grade 10 is the IB learner profiles but we focus on different profiles for different quarters. In quarter one, we focus on Inquirers and Knowledgeable; in quarter two Thinkers and Communicators; in quarter three Principled, Open Minded, and Caring; while in quarter four Risk Takers, Balanced and Reflective. We learn so many things in different subjects this quarter. The subjects that links with the IB learner profile ‘Inquirers’ are: Design technology, Science, English, and PE; while the subjects that links with the IB learner profile ‘Knowledgeable’ are: Humanities, Biblical studies, Bahasa Indonesia, Music, Math, Civics, and activities. My goal for this quarter is to try my best in every subject and get at least a four for the report card scores. Looking at the prediction grade, I have not achieved my goal but this is just the prediction grade in the middle first quarter. I hope my grades would increase for the actual grade this quarter. My goal for the next quarter is to achieve at least a five for my report card scores.
