OGC Personal Project: Home

What IS the Personal Project?

• The personal project is a significant piece of work, on a topic of your choice, done over an extended period of time.
• It is the culminating project of the MYP, and it shows how you have developed as a learner.
• You will pick a learning goal and a product to develop.
• At the end, you will reflect on your success and your learning in the personal project report.
• You’ll also get to show off of your project at the exhibition!
