What
I
knew
prior
to
this
project
was
strictly
general
information
on
some
art
movements
and
painting
canvases
from
MYP
Visual
Arts
class
in
grades
7-10.
In
addition,
my
goal
for
the
year
as
MYP
Prefect
is
to
help
students
better
understand
the
IB
Learner
Profile
Traits.
A
good
way
to
do
this
could
be
having
an
artistic
approach
to
them
in
school.
I
want
to
ensure
that
my
final
products
do
not
look
boring,
and
are
instead
unique/aesthetic.
I
plan
to
send
out
a
survey
collecting
primary
research,
with
input
from
students
to
see
how
they
would
represent
them.
In
conclusion,
all
these
interests
led
to
my
goal
because
I
wanted
to
learn
about
more
art
styles,
improve
my
painting
skills,
and
relate
this
all
to
the
IB
learner
profile
traits
at
the
same
time.
I
set
my
highly
challenging
goal
at
the
beginning
of
this
project
as
a
first
step,
so
I
knew
what
I
wanted
to
attain
through
my
research
process.
This
allowed
me
to
realize
what
I
would
need
to
learn
before
I
could
reach
my
goal.
I
knew
that
I
needed
to
learn
about:
10
different
art
styles
Understand

IB
Learner
Profile
Traits
I
did
my
research
using
both
written
work
and
visual
images,
as
this
project
is
related
to
visual
arts,
where
pictures
are
commonly
used
to
display
information
or
in
my
case,
my
research.
I
already
demonstrate
multiple
Approaches
to
Learning
in
my
everyday
academic
classes
that
will
help
me
reach
my
goal.
For
this
project,
I
think
that
the
most
important
one
will
be
thinking
skills.
I
used
mind
maps
to
plan
out
my
research
in
a
creative
way.
Also,
I
used
image
galleries
to
represent
data
in
a
more
visual
way
through
a
blog
format.
Both
my
existing
knowledge
and
the
knowledge
I
am
obtaining
make
my
goal
highly
challenging.
I
am
able
to
build
off
my
previous
knowledge
of
art
movements
to
create
canvases
for
the
TMS
student
body
to
find
the
commonalities
between
themselves
and
other
peers.
To
be
able
to
attain
my
goal,
research
was
required,
so
I
could
learn
about
my
chosen
topics
further.
I
created
a
research
plan
during
the
summer,
which
I
followed
to
complete
all
of
my
research.
I
prioritized
my
research
by
topic,
starting
off
with
the
more
general
topics.
When
I
started
the
project
I
had
average
research
skills,
as
I
could
take
point
form
notes
from
a
source
and
cite
it
in
APA
citation.
However,
I
have
been
able
to
develop
even
better
research
skills
throughout
the
project.
For
example,
I
displayed
all
my
research
in
a
blog
format,
and
began
to
include
information
in
other
forms
like
images,
slideshows,
etc.
Altogether,
this
research
helped
me
to
refine
my

idea,
whilst
remaining
highly
challenging,
as
it
allowed
me
to
focus
on
the
important
aspects
of
my
goal.
I
was
then
able
to
research
relevant
information
that
was
all
pertinent
to
my
final
goal.
I
tried
to
use
reliable
sources
allowing
me
to
collect
more
accurate
information
as
well.
