Grade 10 · Current project

Connected devices

Develop a proposal for a useful connected device, supported by your working LED prototype. Your earlier work is part of this project.

Summative: 8–20 OctoberA / 8 · B / 8 · Final submission 20 October at 20:00 China time

Start with what you have

Bring your connected-product research, working blink sketch and One LED three messages work. Keep Part A unchanged. For Part B, reuse your research, working blink sketch, One LED three messages work, and previous worksheet. Use short bullet points or a small table. No new planning drawings, system diagrams, flowcharts, or technical drawings are required.

Use only the working ESP32, computer, LED and existing wires/setup for practical work. Keep any existing current-limiting resistor. Additional sensors, paid services and a working cloud connection are not required for this A/B assessment.

What the two scores mean

A · Inquiring and analysing

Show who needs the solution, what you researched, what existing examples taught you, and how the findings guide the project.

B · Developing ideas

Part B update: four requirements, two possible solutions, and one justified choice. Reuse existing research. No planning drawings are required.

Your teacher awards one best-fit level from 0 to 8 for A and another for B. The strands guide the judgement; they are not four separate two-point summative marks. Worksheet totals are not averaged to calculate these levels. The rubrics are task-specific clarifications of the school’s MYP assessment approach, not a replacement for the applicable IB criteria.

No planning drawings are required for this revised task. The existing B rubric still includes B.iv, which asks for planning drawings or diagrams. These short responses provide evidence mainly for B.i–iii; a written component description does not automatically demonstrate B.iv. Your teacher will clarify how any existing evidence is considered. Do not create extra drawings for this revision.
