ROAD TO PYP EXHIBITION 2018
Exhibition Guideline document page 1 states that, “The Primary Years Programme (PYP) exhibition represents a significant event in the life of a PYP school and student, synthesizing the essential elements of the PYP and sharing them with the whole school community.” It is clear that as a final assessment of PYP, the students must apply all the essential elements throughout the process.
This year, we focus on two different trans-disciplinary themes which are ‘How the World Works’ with the central idea “Understanding of scientific knowledge is constantly evolving and has an impact on people’s lives” and ‘How We Organize Ourselves with the central idea “Government systems influence the lives of citizens”.
As a start, we read articles about Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), that focus on quality education; health and well-being; sustainable cities and communities. We sought a range of perspectives from multiple and varied sources and discussed the problems with friends. From this discussion, they brainstormed the current problems related to these topics and has happened in this country which would be their focus of investigation and eventually determines their grouping. Both parents and Mentors had a briefing to have an open communication and share things about the Exhibition process, roles and the assessment.
There are twelve different inquiry areas to be investigated this year.
1. Waste management in Jakarta society
2. The use of health-care facilities in Jakarta
3. Child-friendly city
4.Universal design in developing public infrastructures
5. Programs to improve reading habits
6. Access to quality education for disadvantaged family
7. The roles of schools in minimizing juvenile delinquency
8. National examination as a form of assessment
9. Animal transmitted diseases
10.Promoting affordable healthy diet
11.Infectious diseases in urban communities
12. Population growth and availability of resources
