Today, more than 98,700 MYP students worldwide receive their eAssessment (e-Portfolios and on-screen examinations) and personal projects results from the May 2024 examination session.
This year, 1,081 IB World Schools in 113 countries submitted students' personal projects. This personal and creative piece of work focuses on an area of personal interest to each student. The personal project is a culminating MYP project that all students develop in their final year of the programme.
Olli-Pekka Heinonen, Director General at the IB said: “It is with pride and joy that I congratulate MYP students around the world for their continuous hard work as demonstrated by this year’s results. It is a testament to their diligence but also to that of the IB community of educators who have guided them throughout their endeavours. I hope students continue to exemplify the learner profile by reflecting on their achievements, but I also encourage them to celebrate this milestone in their educational journey.”
Schools have the option to register for the MYP eAssessment which includes ePortfolios of coursework and on-screen examinations. For the May 2024 examination session, 296 IB World Schools in 73 countries participated in the optional MYP eAssessment, representing a 3.56% increase in registrations. Students who registered for the full MYP certificate received an average score of 37.48 points (of 56 possible maximum).
The MYP eAssessment aims to challenge students to think critically and independently while solving real-world problems using a broad range of knowledge. The on-screen examinations are unique because as well as being technologically innovative students also use authentic assessment approaches to demonstrate conceptual understanding and the ability to apply knowledge in complex, unfamiliar contexts, including the use of global contexts.
The MYP builds on the knowledge, skills and attitudes developed by the Primary Years Programme (PYP). It also prepares students for the Diploma Programme (DP) and Career-related Programme (CP) with the critical thinking and future-ready skills that facilitate a smooth transition to anyone who continue their education within the IB continuum.
