Internal
Assessment
The internal assessment task worth 20%
of the final assessment will be one scientific investigation taking about 10
hours and the write up should be about 6 to 12 pages long.
The
IA can be
• a hands-on laboratory investigation,
• using a spreadsheet for analysis and
modelling,
• extracting data from a database and
analysing it graphically producing a hybrid of spreadsheet/database work with
a traditional hands-on investigation,
• using a simulation
provided it is interactive and open-ended.

Assessment in IB year 12: Regular assessment will take place using
various formative and summative assessment methods.
