Guest Aastha Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 My Examiner visit is on the 22nd of this month and the examiner has asked us to courier our Research Workbooks to her/him by tomorrow. Is that pretty normal? or is it hat the examiner is suspicious of something? Also I am an Visual Arts HL Option B - 60% Workbook and 40% Studio Work. And I have been able to complete only 120-130 pages, is that okay? Please reply urgently anyone, I need to give'em to the teacher for the courier in some hours.

Avan:) Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 i don't think you can do anything about it anyway. If your friends also have around the same number of pages then i think it's ok ... Even if not the worst case scenario is that you'd have to redo it or something. still ... ... I'm sure you will be fine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aastha Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 No actually they don't really ask us to redo them! I mean how can they ask us to redo the pages?But my pages contain a very good balance of knowledge understanding and sketches, pictures, history and contemporary art.No body except me n my school has taken Option B.And nowhere in the criteria or anywhere the number of pages have been mentioned, My teacher asked it around on the OCC, no teacher really said its a criteria that has been given by the IB....What do you think?

Jaymi Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I am an Visual Arts HL Option B - 60% Workbook and 40% Studio Work. And I have been able to complete only 120-130 pages, is that okay? Please reply urgently anyone, I need to give'em to the teacher for the courier in some hours. Wait you're option B and you only completed 130 pages? Over a 2 year period? how is that possible? If you're option B you're supposed to have majority work done in your IWB and that should really be atleast 300 pages because option A is majority work on studios and we have to have 300 pages, but thats just my teacher. BUT, if your pages are strong and really goes in depth with experimentation and ideas and development of pieces you should be okayish. You can also convince the examiner during the interview phase of the exam. So just be prepared for lots of questions you'll be fine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aastha Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I didn't have a teacher for the first year, this is a painful process for me. sigh. But yes, I have talked about cell animation, introduced local artists and analysed their language.Also put plenty sketches and talked about visual communication history and print makking history... also talked about the great wave off kanagawa and analysed... atleast 2-4 pages on each studio work! and tonns more...

Guest Aastha Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) Even I cannot gulp the fact that after writing so much, it still is 130-120 pages!I mean I've really worked so hard and my works are really good. I have 10 studio pieces.Also I have written about alternative materials that i considered and things! My pages sound really informative and very appealing in looks too!We didn't even have a teacher for ESS, Maths STudies and Physics for the whole two years, tell me about it.

Jaymi Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 in that case, the answer to your question "OMG, Am I going to be dead?" is no you'll be fine, but be prepared for lots of questions Good Luck for your Exhibition <let me know how it goes> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie D Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Help!!!I am in a brand new IB program at my school. We are the first class to ever go for the Diploma. I am the only one signed up for IB art, and I will be the first kid to ever do this at my school not to mention I will be going at it alone. No one is telling me what I need to do and I am starting to panic. I am a Junior and won't start IB art until next year. What do I do? What can I expect? Please help me!
