This comprehensive bundle contains 3 complete unit planners covering the IB DP Computer Science Internal Assessment, Case Study, and Collaborative Sciences Project (FA2027). Designed for combined SL/HL classrooms across Year 2, Terms 1–3.
Case Study Preparation – Paper 1, Section B; SL: 2 challenge questions; HL: 4 challenge questions. Skills: understanding systems, applying syllabus concepts, discussing ethics, evaluating/justifying strategies. Sustained research across Year 2 (15h SL / 30h HL).
Collaborative Sciences Project – Interdisciplinary project (10h). CS contribution: data tools, computational thinking (B1.1), simulations/visualisations, ethical perspective (A4.4). Not externally examined.
Internal Assessment – 30% SL / 20% HL (35h). Criteria A–E: Problem specification (4), Planning (4), System overview (6), Development (12), Evaluation (4). Documentation (≤2,000 words), video (≤5 min), appendices (full source code).
Activities – Case study: concept mapping, research presentations, practice responses, ethical discussions, new stimulus practice. CSP: problem framing, computational angle, building component, reflective accounts. IA: topic brainstorming, specification drafting, system modelling, independent development, testing, evaluation, peer review, teacher feedback.
Assessment – Case study: past-style Section B under timed conditions. CSP: reflective account. IA: final submission against official Criteria A–E.
Differentiation – Scaffolding (templates, checklists); extension (advanced techniques, deeper research). Affirming identity (personal/community problems).
Cross-curricular – TOK (self-directed inquiry, interdisciplinary knowledge); CAS (community projects).
CT Skills – Synthesis, decomposition, abstraction, pattern recognition, algorithmic design, evaluation.
Resources – IB Guide, Programme Resource Centre, Craig’n’Dave, planning tools, templates.
Pacing – Case Study: Year 2, Term 2, Weeks 4–8; CSP: Year 2, Term 1, Week 7; IA: Year 2, Term 2–3, Weeks 9–16.
