Last week our young adepts of physical sciences were asked to investigate the acceleration due to gravity.
The test can be executed in various ways in which our Year 12 students decided to measure how speed changes with:
A falling object
A ball rolling down a ramp
Timing oscillation (movement back and forth at a regular speed) of a pendulum.
This task was designed to help students to learn nuances of proper scientific investigation, develop their analytical skills, and most importantly they learn how to properly evaluate the viability of a test based on the method used to conduct it.
In all cases, results were fairly close to the expected value - within a reasonable margin of error - so, unfortunately, we won't be scheduling meetings with the Nobel Committee quite yet.
As part of the St Andrews Careers programme, Year 10 and Year 12 students had the valuable opportunity to hear from 20 industry professionals, including alumni, about various career pathways. The morning panel discussions provided insights into professional routes, required qualifications, and essential interpersonal skills for workplace success.
As Term 3 comes to an end, three senior students, Eleonore, Natalie, and Ananya, reflect on their experiences in the IB Diploma Programme at St Andrews International School Bangkok. Perhaps one of the most meaningful projects Ananya and Natalie took on during their senior studies was starting a foundation with a few other friends called Today4tomorrow – an initiative to provide opportunities to underprivileged girls in Thailand.
Congratulations to St Andrews senior student Natalie, who received an offer at the University of Bath to pursue a degree in Psychology. Have a read to learn more about Natalie’s perspective on the IB Diploma Programme and the endless possibilities that await her exploration.
Congratulations to senior student Ananya, who received an offer at University College London to pursue a degree in Politics and International Relations. We discussed her experience during the IB Diploma Programme at St Andrews and her ideas and aspirations for the future. Read on!
