Look at the next slide and take 5 minutes to reflect


Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Plan
Looking back a little bit more 
- Making links
- Reflection
- Evaluation
You say 'why?' I say: to make sense of things, bring it together, for you and me to learn from, 
closure

Looking ahead a little bit more 
- IO
You say 'why?' I say: I want to make sure I have covered everything and you cannot give next year's teacher this look


Slide 6 - Tekstslide

Task
I want you to get a piece of paper in front of you or, better even, an app for mindmaps
On the piece of paper, draw 10 circles with the following content - you will be connecting them later so make sure there is enough space

1) The White Tiger (literary)
2) I am born to do this: condemned by caste, Indian sewer cleaners risk death daily - 2018-The Guardian
3) Another woman - Imtiaz Dharker
4) Banksy art work

10) Why Janet Jackson is pop's most underrated legend - 2019

Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Mindmap - think
Five minutes: 

Write down anything that comes to mind in terms of 'themes' or 'global issues' for each circle of your mindmap. 

Leave some space for ideas that will follow later.

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Mindmap - Global issues (IO)
During your IO, you will be analysing how two texts (one literary, one non-literary) engage with a global issue. 


You will see an overview of five fields of inquiry from which you can choose a topic/global issue:

  • Culture, identity and community 
  • Beliefs, values and education
  • Politics, power and justice
  • Art, creativity and the imagination
  • Science, technology and the environment

Use these as a source of inspiration to add more ideas to your mindmap (5 minutes)

Slide 12 - Tekstslide

Which links do
you make?
Text, topics, etc.

Slide 13 - Woordweb

Global Issues (IO)
During your IO, you will be analysing how two texts (one literary, one non-literary) engage with a global issue. 

Global issues as you know them* (The White Tiger) corruption, patriotism, inequality, nationalism, class difference) are (DISCLAIMER: most likely) not the global issues the IB is looking for. They are 'topicy,' very broad. We will probably want to make them more specific.




Slide 14 - Tekstslide

Also
'Issues' sound like problems, but 'global issues' are not only negative. 

They have to meet these requirements: 
  • It has a significance on a wide/large scale
  • It is transnational
  • Its impact is felt in everyday local contexts

Slide 15 - Tekstslide

Global issues
The key is to find the sweet spot between too broad and too narrow. 

Too broad: 
Corruption

Too narrow (local):
The government of a country has impeached their president on charges of corruption

Appropriate:
Corruption as an obstacle to achieving greater equality

Slide 16 - Tekstslide

Global issues
The key is to find the sweet spot between too broad and too narrow. 

Too broad: 
Gender equality

Too narrow (local):
Inequality between male and female members in a particular (social) group 

Appropriate:
The impact of culture on gender inequality

Slide 17 - Tekstslide

Global issues
The key is to find the sweet spot between too broad and too narrow. 

Too broad: 
Gender

Too narrow (local):
A woman did not get a job as a manager because of her gender

Appropriate:
Gender bias manifested in the work environment leads to income gap

Slide 18 - Tekstslide

Wrapping up your final year of IB -4

Slide 19 - Tekstslide

So what's next?
For the IO, choose at least one 'theme' from your mindmap that you have drawn between a literary work and a body of work. 
Insert your combination and your 'theme' or 'global issue' (the broad version) on the next slide. 





Slide 20 - Tekstslide

Which combination did you make and what would be the global issue?

Slide 21 - Open vraag

Your IO
 You have to make sure that you choose an excerpt from your literary work (max 40 lines, 20-25 recommended) that reflects the global issue of your choice as well as an excerpt from your non-literary (BOW) (max 40 lines, 20-25 recommended) or stills or just one advertisement (etc) that reflects the same global issues. 

The authors of the texts do not have to have the same approach to the global issue; they just have it in common. 

You will also want to connect your extract to the rest of the literary work and the rest of the author's body of work. 

Slide 22 - Tekstslide

IO - Summary
1. choose a global issue
2. choose max of 40 lines of literary work (min 20)
3. choose max of 40 lines of non-literary text (min 20)
4. fill in the outline form (in jaarbijlagen SOM; do not use full sentences, only phrases, 
5. make copies for your teacher (3x2 copies: 1) literary extract, 2)non-literary extract, 3) outline form)
6. prepare unannotated copies for your exam (preferably, number the lines)
7. study marking criteria for Individual Oral exam (assessment rubric uploaded in SOM)
8. submit all required copies 3 days before the oral and don't forget to sign in for your exam


Slide 23 - Tekstslide

This was it. 
We have reflected, connected the dots (I hope) and evaluated. 
We have also explored the IO.
You know something about everything. 
Go and WOW me with your IO as well as your teacher next year. I hope it will be me but chances (90 %) are that it will be someone else. 
Make yourself proud ! 



And remember that the IB doesn't stop at the end of a school year or at graduation......
