PROJECTWEEK PROFIELKEUZE - BLOG

Today, the focus of our project week was on discovering personal talents and qualities. It was an important opportunity for our students to reflect on who they are and to better understand why certain subjects or study paths suit them.To kick things off, the students took the 16 Personalities Test, a fun and accessible way to gain insight into their strengths and preferences. The test provided them with a clearer picture of whether they are more analytical, creative, or socially inclined. If you’re curious and would like to try the test yourself, click here.

 

Building on the test results, the students then worked on their daily task. They had the option to choose between two creative assignments. Some designed a coat of arms that represented their talents and qualities through symbols and colors, while others wrote a story about their future selves, imagining how their skills and talents would help them achieve their goals. These tasks not only encouraged creativity but also helped students articulate their strengths in a meaningful way. If you’d like to see what your child has been working on, take a look at their project booklet—it’s a wonderful way to spark a conversation about their unique abilities.While many students already have a good idea of the subjects they wish to choose, we’ve noticed that some still struggle to explain why these subjects are a good fit for them. They also find it challenging to describe what the subjects entail and how they can excel in them. To address this, tomorrow we will have discussions with students who have already made their subject choices. These students will share their experiences and provide tips to help their peers make more confident and informed decisions.

 

It’s worth mentioning that a few students had to stay a little longer today to complete or correct their daily tasks from yesterday. In some cases, assignments weren’t uploaded as PDFs or placed in the correct location. We kindly ask you to check in at home to ensure that everything is submitted correctly moving forward. Working together, we can help ensure all tasks are completed on time.

 

On another note, we wrapped up the final presentations from subject teachers today. We aim to publish these presentations tomorrow so that every student can access them and gather even more information to support their decisions.

 

The atmosphere today was inspiring, with students engaged in their tasks, sharing insights with one another, and making significant strides in their personal growth. We’re excited for tomorrow, where we’ll continue these important conversations, publish the presentations, and take the next steps in guiding our students toward making the best possible choices.If you have any questions or would like advice on how to support your child in their decision-making process, feel free to reach out to us.

 

Together, we can help them succeed.
