From Research Question to Strong IA: Guiding Students Without Doing It for Them

Details

The IB Chemistry IA Masterclass From Weak Question to Defensible Investigation A promising Chemistry IA begins long before students write their reports. It begins with a research question they can investigate, a method that produces useful data, and a clear understanding of what their results can—and cannot—show. Join this **90-minute interactive webinar for IB DP Chemistry teachers** to explore how to guide students through the scientific investigation while protecting their ownership of the work. Together, we will: - Turn broad ideas into focused, feasible research questions. - Plan investigations that generate relevant quantitative data. - Make sound decisions about variables, measurements, repetitions, and uncertainty. - Help students connect their analysis to a justified conclusion and meaningful evaluation. - Apply the current **research design, data analysis, conclusion, and evaluation** criteria to sample work. - Give constructive feedback within the IB’s guidance on authenticity. You will work through practical chemistry examples and leave with questions and strategies you can use to support your own IA students. **Duration:** 90 minutes **Location:** Online via Google Meet **Fee:** $25 **Certificate:** Certificate of participation provided **Register now and help your students build investigations they can confidently defend.**
