Grade 11

Topics:

x-component and y-component of forces

IB Learner Profile Learning Activity
Inquirers Learners analyse the x-component and y-component of forces applied on an object.
Knowledgeable Learners measure and calculate the uncertainty of measurement and also 

how to calculate the vectors.

Thinkers Learners distinguish between the x-component and y-component of an object moving.
Balanced Learners practice motion equations that are one of the fundamental concepts in Physics.
Reflective Learners resolve the components to help her work out the questions clearer and easier

 

Grade 12
Topics:

Electricity

IB Learner Profile Learning Activity
Inquirers Learners investigate electricity using a lot of relatable analogies such as water current, traffic jam, online food order and drinks.
Knowledgeable Learners investigate electricity in this term. The subtopics are charges, current, electric field, drift velocity, electrical components such as resistors, voltmeters, ammeters, cells and types of circuits.
Thinkers Learners analyse how the electrical components are intertwined with each other.
Communicators Learners interpret the report and give appropriate marks for the writing based on the descriptor and guidance provided by the teacher. Then, they give justification for the grade written.
Reflective Learners generate interest in the IA by grading the report examples of other IBDP students.
