For Students: Higher Level Essay
Thursday 15 July 2021
This week, I’ve been working on the “For Students” section of the site with a specific focus on the Higher Level Essay. I’ve created the following pages for this week’s update:
- Model example 1 (Szymborska poetry)
- Model example 2 (George Monbiot essays)
- Model example 3 (White Noise)
By the end of July, I will have added pages that go into more detail about the line of inquiry, the start to finish process of writing the essay, and a final checklist you can hand to students before they submit it to you.
The goal of the “For Students” section is for you to have a go-to place to send your students when they have questions about either assessment. It’s written in student friendly language and is (hopefully!) a great guide for them in preparing them for success. You’ll also find the Individual Oral section is up-to-date and ready to go.
And as a friendly reminder, your students get free access to InThinking with your subscription. You can find out how to give them free access to the site here.
Best,
Tim
