Knowledgeble
Being knowledgeable is a important quality in order to become a good IB student. In my opinion, the piece of work that reflected my characteristics of knowledgeable is the One World Essay based on Solar Power completed in physics. This essay is assessed with criterion A and criterion B for one world and communication.
Through this essay, I have demonstrated my characteristics of being knowledgeable in many areas. Through the research stage, I have learnt the science behind the functionality of solar panels and how it generates energy, existing issues of fossil fuels and how solar energy is able to solve this. I have benefitted from this research in reality, as I now know that the main factor or global warming and air pollution is fossil fuels, as well as the damage it has caused to our environment. This has alerted me to use alternate sources of renewable energy with less greenhouse gas emission when possible. From the research based on the implications of this solar technology, I have acknowledge the social, environmental and economical significance this technology have on global issues. As I clearly stated the possible future solutions of replacing fossil fuels with solar energy, which can create a much cleaner community for us, I can express the importance of economical support for this research through informing others the concepts and global issues investigated through this essay.
I have also demonstrated the features of being knowledgeable as I have refined my ability for researching through more reliable sources and the importance of correctly sourcing my work. I can clearly demonstrate these researching skills I have gained in other research assignments given in the future.
This AB One World Essay required me to research the concept of Solar energy, solar panels and the implications of science. I began by clearly planning the structure of the essay with the introduction of fossil fuels issues create and the effectiveness of the solution, supported with statistics. Next, I focused on the science of how energy is generated through solar panels. Thirdly, I stated the effectiveness of this solution at solving human problems. Finally, I structured my last two paragraphs with the implications that the solution have caused in environmental and economical issues. I gathered sources that I felt were reliable and useful towards my research and took notes that could possibly be the contents of my essay.
I feel that I did well with this essay as I have demonstrated skills of being knowledgeable through gaining new knowledge that had a global and local significance, as well as being able to use such skills in other assessments. I also feel that I was very organized with the contents of my work and had good time management. Although I did well with this essay, I feel that there were some areas of the implications of science’s contents that still lacked my personal opinions. If I have another chance to try a similar assignment, I would focus more on my opinions.
