Process Journal: entry 01
Today we had a meeting with mr. Hume where we started the personal project and handed in our ideas. The idea that I have for my personal project now, is to interview MYP students from SIS and ask them their thoughts on feminism. I will film them whilst interviewing this and edit it into a video. I’m quite certain this project will keep me interested for the entire time, because I have an interest in every part of the project. As of right now, I’ve chosen “Fairness and Development” as my global context, because I think it will suit my (temporary) topic question: “what do SIS students think about feminism?” the best, because feminism is all about equality and fairness. However the global context “Personal and cultural expression” also fits my topic question rather well, because everybody in SIS has a different background and thus a different perspective on feminism influenced by their culture and personal experiences.
VERY ROUGH PLAN

Construct interview questions
Select interviewees
Interview the people
Write out the interviews and create a rough editing plan
