Inquiring and analyzing

Today in class I worked on a power point presentation explaining the do's and don'ts of using laptops at school. In my power point presentation in order to make it look nice I used different designs on my power point so that it looks good in presentation. I enjoyed exploring the new designs to make my power point unique and different. I also explored some new useful/helpful websites that I used for some information related to the do's and don'ts of using laptops in school, I enjoyed searching pictures online related to this topic - Rules for using a laptop in school. In this lesson I was a IB learner because I was caring and knowledgeable, because I was caring enough to share my knowledge about this topic to others who needed help.
