Student Projects - GPIS Egypt

At Green Land Pré Vert International School we aim to enhance curiosity, intercultural understanding and respect, while fostering our students’ feeling of belonging to their culture and mother tongue, as well as promoting learner agency, self-efficacy and responsible actions.

QUALITIES PROJECT

MYP 4 Students are encouraged to engage into in-depth inquiry of the favorable qualities in the holy books that God loves to prevail and spread in our society. (Perfection in actions - Patience - Self Appraisal - Confidence - Justice - Purity - Repentance)

In the process, they develop an understanding of the interrelationship between all the qualities and relate them to the IB learner profile attributes. Moreover, students compare the interpretations of the qualities in different cultures and choose historical and contemporary figures from diverse cultures to project the qualities on.

With all the learning that takes place, students become in a good position to understand the potential problems that might occur if society members behave in contradiction to those qualities. In conclusion, students make recommendations to solve those problems with good deeds and behaviors, so that the qualities that Allah loves prevail and spread in our society.
