Gerald Wu

Inquirers - Wright Brothers Two who are truly curious, motivated and brave enough to carry out researches and experiments, ultimately accomplishing what nobody even dared thinking of - flying.

Knowledgeable-Sheldon Cooper As one of the main characters from the comedy show 'The Big Bang Theory', he is, although essentially emotionless, an extremely clever and knowledgeable person. It isn't rare in the show to find him giving his friends lectures related to his knowledge in the scientific field. He also often argues with his best friend Leonard on their theories.

Thinkers - Bear Grylls Bear Grylls is an incredibly courageous man who is capable of surviving in the wild and absolutely unpredictable situations . Through his wisdom and critical thinking skills, he has gone through countless survival missions all across the world, all by himself. As he knows just about everything in the wilderness - flowers, animals, geography, whether and more, he is a perfect example of someone who applies their knowledge on solving complex problems.

Communicators - Donald Trump

Donald Trump's immense confidence(boldness) has promoted him from a successful businessman to a US presidential candidate with a decent amount of support. In the mean time, he also has many personal connections all across the world, especially in China, who he claims to be his favorite country.

Caring - Superman As a man everyone on earth looks up to, his caring heart, compassion for others and sense of responsibility burden him into protecting the world from villains and aggressors. It is in fact actually superman's will and commitment to protect the dwellers of earth and provide them each a more peaceful and secure home.

Principled - Harvey Dent Honest, disciplined, efficient and just. Harvey Dent from the Batman series protects his beloved city of Gotham alongside with Batman himself. Regardless Batman's wealthiness, fighting skills and courage, Harvey Dent, as the Gotham City's district attorney, he was in fact the accepted symbol of hope for its citizens in such a chaotic city. Alhough there did exist other judges who were corrupt and unethical, Dent was like none of them.

Open-minded - Martin Luther King Junior

Martin Luther King is a black man who appreciated his very own cultural background and racial identity, and absolutely was determined enough to standup and advocate for his racial identity, earning back the dignity and respect his race deserved against those who considered them to be 'inferior'. In that process, King held a forgiving and kind point of view, thus only earning his race's place among humanity back through giving peaceful and inspirational speeches, rather belittling other races in return.

Risk Takers - Batman Batman has taken numerous risks and survived near death combats with those who intended the destruction of Gotham City. Even at the most intense and critical moments, such as the ending of Batman : Dark Knight Rises, Batman doesn't hesitate to do what must be done - risking his life for the city he promised to protect.

Balanced - Mark Knudsen A perfect balance between knowledge and physical health. While having a very healthy life and strong body, Mr. Knudsen also manages to know the key to staying fit, also both physically and mentally healthy. He has set a great example for the category of Balanced for it is difficult for many to become both knowledgeable and physically fit.

Reflective - Julie Jeon As my bus-riding buddy, Julie is one of the most reflective people I've ever met. Whatever event it may be, test, ceremony or speech, she always makes verbal or text reflections on what has happened. I have heard multiple of those reflections as a result of riding the bus with her for five years. Within each reflection, the crucial informations are always mentioned. Including what she's done wrong and what she could improve and how. Thus, placing her in the reflective profile among other options.

IB Learner Profile

By:Michelle Lee

page 1

Caring

I understand that I must show empathy, compassion and support for those around me. Even though I know that everyone has different methods in expressing their care and empathy around them; I will still support my community to help them understand why it matters to care. I chose this picture of two people hugging because it is scientifically proven that when hugging it releases adrenaline and helps to relieve stress. This is a picture of Dain and I, she's a friend and peer who loves to show care and empathy for those all around her. Through her expression of care I was motivated to share and to spread awareness of compassion around my community. Therefore I thought through the picture of hugging could well describe how one shows empathy, compassion and support for each other through difficult and happy times. But also helping to relieve stress!

page 3

Inquirers

Inquirers obtain curiosity and continuously question and wonder problems and conflict. Having this attitude and natural habit of being curious, inquirers are always bound to love learning. I chose this picture of a lightbulb to define inquirers. Lightbulbs are a symbol of spark, a sudden reaction. Such as when Thomas Edison invented the lightbulbs (time), he continuously questioned his success, ability and time put into the creation of a lightbulb. Therefore the reason for his success after a thousand trials and failures was because he questioned and wondered whether all the effort will be paid off in the future. Edison's experience and lifetime inquiry proves to us that questioning, curiosity and earning an answer provides a key to success.

page 5

Principled

Principled' encompasses the meaning of: justice and honesty. The act of balancing and discussing the right and the wrongs, the ethics and most importantly the sense of fairness of a situation. I believe that having the attitude of being principled is crucial for everyone. Due to the fact that it is always helpful to have a strong sense of what one believes is to be justice, or their perception of fairness. I chose this picture of the gravel I received during MYMUN. Because not only does it remind me of justice, but also reminds me of my full participation for an activity that dealt with fairness and solutions. With the gravel I have made decisions upon whether the resolution written should be passed or not. My decisions were made according to the speeches, POIs, amendments of the committee. The gravel motivates me to continue participating in MUN to achieve better and higher results as a delegate, member of International Court of Justice and as a chair to bring justice

page 7

Knowledge-able

Knowledgeable is a word itself which defines knowledge. Not just simple knowledge such as ' A tree is tall', but digging in deeper and wider about the subject. "Why is the tree tall" or "Why do trees have branches?". Being knowledgeable proves one's capability to accepting a wide range of understanding. Also being able to analyze and balance a range of disciplines. When learning new knowledge, one isn't simply adding another list of facts into their storage, yet they are exploring ideas with global significance, concepts and ideas that matters to the world. When I was reminded of the word 'knowledgeable', I thought of Sara Pistono. She well defines how an individual enjoys depth, details and dedication towards a knowledge. Through our experience together starting from sixth grade up till junior year, I realized that Sara has guided me always both punctually and emotionally. Especially in guiding me through how knowledge should be applied and how the depth of the knowledge matters in every situation. Therefore whenever in STUCO, or especially in MUN I look under and deeper beneath the surface information to look for the details.

page 9

Thinkers

Thinkers are responsible for applying their knowledge and skills to approach problems in order to make a conclusion that is reasonable, ethical and practical. Every thinker has their own creative and critical way in approaching a conflict or in discovering an applicable solution. I chose this picture of a white space to define that everyone is a thinker, and simply there are no limitations in becoming a thinker. Thoughts, knowledge and creativity is unlimited. Yet is greatly depended on the freedom of the thinker. Therefore I believe that this blank piece of paper will remind me of the reason to not fear in becoming a thinker, and to be creative.

page 11

Communi-cation

The form of communication consists of many forms, meaning that communication can be expressed freely in any unique formation. The ultimate message can be received through different languages, gestures, facial expression and etc. With these unlimited methods, communication plays a big role in the formation of collaboration between individuals. I chose this picture of a speaker to portray that communication is about speaking up and expressing personal feelings. Speakers amplifies and strengths the sound. Therefore through the image, I am emphasizing the need for my strong voice with confidence. Despite what others may believe and think, your voice should always be heard.

page 13

Open- minded

Being open-minded takes a lot of acceptance and appreciation. Not only does it encompass the need for appreciating one's own culture and personal background, but also must be capable of accepting and valuing the background of others. Through the experience of different backgrounds and culture, individuals who are open-minded will be able to receive a wide range of viewpoints and perspective. Also at times may encounter change in what they used to think. Even at times stereotypes can be destroyed or also may be positively created. I decided to choose this picture of a cluster of a group of people. Specifically people with different backgrounds, culture and history. Their gesture of holding hands proves the idea of being open-minded and the outcome of being open-minded; showing the willingness to grow and connect with others. Therefore I was able to think back to my beginning experience as a third culture kid. I had difficulties in adapting, and I was able to overcome by being outgoing and also being open-minded towards others. It took time to learn, but being open-minded does play a role in finding your values and learning to respect. Therefore I will continue to express my acceptance in the different environments I will encounter in the future.

page 15

Risk-takers

Being a risk taker is experiencing a challenge! It takes a great amount of effort, sacrifice and courage to approach and explore new ideas in freedom. A risk taker is very confident and articulate in sharing and also defending their beliefs. The main point about risk takers is that they can approach unfamiliar situations without creating doubt or perceptions beforehand. Michelle Obama reminded me of taking risks. People would image First Ladies wearing long gowns and formal clothes in the White House, being the respectful and elegant lady. However, Michelle Obama showed her challenge through her fashion. The First Lady promotes her movement and thoughts through her clothes and style. For example she dresses in her yoga pants whilst promoting her "Let's Move" strategy. Despite the media's criticism towards her fashion or even at times for exposing too much skin, Michelle Obama stays and wears what she believes that portrays her true self. In other words, Michelle Obama does not fear the media or also know as the ultimate barrier that influences her identity; she does not fear being sexy, being trendy or being the subject discussed upon for her fashion. Despite their challenge and courage to portray her self through her fashion, she also is a very dedicated First Lady in exploring new ideas and initiatives to help create a better society. Therefore I will put more effort in becoming an individual who will not fear the barriers that prevents myself from being who I am.

page 17

Reflective

We reflect after our service learning activity, trip to WWW or etc. When reflecting, we are looking back to our experience and the learnings we encountered. Being able to successfully reflect and think upon your past is about realizing the strengths you obtain. But also the limitations and weaknesses in which you have the potential to improve and to make it stronger. I understand that the reason why students write reflections and teachers tell students to reflect all the time. The reason is because the habit of being reflective, becomes a great stepping stone in creating a better and successful learning environment. I chose this picture of myself facing the mirror because I realized that I lack the time that I grant myself to think back on my mistakes, memories or experience. Meaning that I think too much about the hardships or loss others go through, but not much of my 'inner' problems. Which made me think why I may lose interest or motivation for resistance and continuation at times. Therefore this picture portrays my desire. A promise to myself, to give myself time to think deeply about the reasons behind my mistakes, feelings and even success. This change in my attitude of becoming reflective will provide me the opportunity to understand myself more.

page 19

Balanced

There is a need to experience the importance of physical, emotional and intellectual balance. Being balanced not only positively affects an individual but also for others around. Having a friend or a partner who is capable of successfully balancing out their values, and even barriers in life will positively benefit in becoming a great model for you. I chose this picture of my mother, because she has and will continue to become my role model. Not only has she taught me great things in life such as to always accept not avoid, but most importantly she has taught me how to become a balanced individual. Through her hard times during her teenage and adolescent years, she had to learn to balance her emotional and intellectual thoughts to not get overthrown by her hard times. Therefore I think my mother successfully portrays what 'balanced' defines. One experience in her life has taught her a life lesson to always find the ultimate value first. Then to balance your emotions or thoughts accordingly to reach your success. Therefore she passes on her methods and lessons in helping me to not get dominated by the hardships I encounter ; but rather to find a value that will help me balance

STAR TREK EDITION

THE IB LEANER PROFILE

HOSHI SATO

The ones that want to know. Being an inquirer is yearning to learn new things and actually applying them to improve their daily lives. Hoshi Sato from the TV show Star-Trek: Enterprise is a perfect example of being an inquirer. She was a noted human linguist who was stationed on the Enterprise NX-01. Sato felt very isolated growing up causing her to lose her ability of making friends and to communicate normally with other people. Inquirers develop a natural curiosity, her need for being social eventually led her into studying different languages so that she could understand and make connections with the culture and peoples. Due to her superior language skills she was able to become the first human to become fluent in Klingon and help her crew on their life threatening missions.

DATA

The ones who know what they want and need to know. Data from the Star-Trek: Voyager was the epitome of knowledgeable. He was a Soong-type android who was a robot who looked and physically acted like a human. He has access to everything you could possibly imagine due to his advance technology. However knowledgeable by being an intellect but by also learning from experiences. He struggled from not having any emotions but he tried his hardest at everything her did to know what it would be like to be human.

MONTGOMERY 'SCOTTY' SCOTT

The ones who digest and produce solutions and explanations. They are critical yet creative. Scotty from the latest Star-Trek movie series was the go to person for coming up with a smart solution. The ship was always prone to running into serious problems and the first on the scene was Scotty the engineer. He always had a quick solution in the back of his head and worked extremely fast to bring everything back to normal. All of his solutions were ethical due to the pressure of having the life of crew and ship in his hands. Ultimately he is the ideal problem solver.

JEAN-LUC PICARD

The ones who express their ideas confidently. The Star-Fleet Captain Jean-luc Picard had the most important job in his crew in communication. He had to not only express his ideas and concepts but his crew's ideas and concepts to all levels of the federation. This requires a lot of confidence on his part especially with the pressure of being the first person to contact foreign species with no prior knowledge to what may happen. A communicator not only shares their ideas but collaborates with others to benefit their lives.

SPOCK

The ones who stand for justice and ethics. One of the most notable characters from the Star-Trek series is also one of most principled character. The Volken species are not the most emotional and everything relies on ethics. Spock believes in following every rule and regulation and is against those who purposely break them. Principled people should believe in justice and believe that everything right that should happen, must happen. They take responsibility for their actions, and believe in doing the right thing.

GEORDI LA FORGE

The ones who take everything into perspective. Geordi la Forge is a perfect example of open-minded because he is not judgmental. As a human who is blind taking on missions in space shows how he needs to rely on giving everything equal opportunities. Although he is blind, he has a visor which helps him see things around him in a vey vague way. He can see light and shadows of people however he does not the privilege of judging people on their appearance of actions visually due to his impairment. Open-minded people can appreciate others cultures and personal histories, Forge has no bias and takes everything into perspective while living his life on the ship.

DEANNA TROI

The ones who strive to make a positive difference. Deanna Troi from the Voyager specialized in caring due to her being the ship's counselor. If anybody had the slightest emotional problem she would be the person to come up with a solution. A caring person knows how to show empathy for those around her. She was half-Betazoid so she was capable of extra-sensory empathy thus helping her sense problems in others easily. This was her greatest skill. She strived to help others have and make a positive difference in their lives.

CAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK

The ones who have courage. The infamous Captain James T. Kirk was the most well noted risk taker in the whole Star trek series. Although he was the captain of the ship, he knew that in certain situations he needed to take risks. Risk-Takers approach unfamiliar situations with courage and confidence. Captain Kirk takes many gambles through out his whole career, however he unlike many others had knowledge to back up his risks. He makes gut decisions with his prior knowledge and goes into to everything head first. A risk-taker should be able to have an independent spirit and try their hardest to make things work.

CAPTAIN KATHRYN JANEWAY

The ones who appreciate personal well-being. Being balanced is a two way street. You can either take the easy way out or the hard way out. There are three main factors intellectual, emotional, and physical well being, Captain Janway of the Voyager was a leader who knew how to not only be balanced herself but keep her crew balanced. As a captain of a ship soaring through space and encountering borgs and other disruptions she was able to use her intellect to come up with solutions while keeping her crew and herself intact. She knew how to appreciate and value others to support her ship and survival.

WESLEY CRUSHER

The ones who takes everything into further consideration. Reflecting is contemplating. Contemplating about all the struggles, accomplishments, experiences, and knowledge that we had previously. Wesley Crusher, one of the youngest people to work on the Star-Fleet was always gaining knowledge. Growing up around all the Star-Fleet officials helped him learn discipline and knowledge about how to work on the ship. He was an extremely smart person, so he used his knowledge to his ability and was able to asses his strengths and limitations. A reflective person reviews and learns from their mistakes to support and improve their personal development.

IB Learner Profile

Julie Jeon

The IB Learner Profile outlines the qualities that an IB student should have. Although the criteria is the same for every student, it bears a different meaning to every one of us.

Inquirer

When I was young, I used to take immense interest in insects. Although I was somewhat grossed out by the crawling, swarming, flying creatures, their continuous movement would never fail to fascinate me. Fueled by that curiosity, I would search in books and the internet to learn more about them. My passion for this subject made me inquire for that knowledge.

Knowledgeable

The Library of Alexandria is known for the vast amounts of knowledge it encompassed. The library contained countless texts in Greek, Egyptian, and many other languages, and the categories of the books ranged from rhetoric to medicine. Scholars from all over the region visited the library, craving for knowledge. It provided valuable knowledge for many great scholars of the time, such as Euclid, Archimedes, and Eratosthenes. The depth and breadth of knowledge in the Library parallels with the notion in the IB learner profile that an IB learner must be able to acquire "in-depth knowledge" and "develop understanding across a broad and balanced range of discipline". In that sense, the Library of Alexandria serves as a symbol of the diverse knowledge and the ability to search for that knowledge.

Thinker

The purpose of a national assembly, or congress, is namely, to make the law and make amendments to the constitution. It is the assembly's duty to recognize the situations that call for an addition or amendment in the constitution. This means that the assembly must have the qualities of a "thinker" in performing its duties. The assembly must take initiative in proposing adequate solutions for the citizens, which requires them to analytically assess the situation to generate original resolutions. Through this process, well-considered decisions can be made by the assembly. The process the national assembly has to go through to perform its duties resemble that of an IB student in that an IB learner should be able to make reasoned, ethical decisions based on the utilization of critical and creative thinking skills.

Communicator

Ever since Ban Ki Moon was young, he was known for his fluent english. After he became the Secretary General of the UN, he also acquired French as his third language, making him even more capable in communication. These language skills helped him immensely when it came to dealing with sensitive international affairs. Also during his years as a diplomat in the Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he was consistently the most wanted diplomat in the Ministry for his ability to collaborate well with anyone. Not only did he get his own work done, but also he completed work alone that would normally have taken multiple people to do. Furthermore, he is also known for his mediation skills. During his term as a Secretary General, there was a time where Arab countries and Israel refused to attend a meeting for children due to a conflict between political tension between the two parties. Ban Ki Moon succeeded in mediating this conflict by appealing to both parties by bringing focusing on the point that the meeting was for children, and political tension should not interfere with the improvement of the children's future. Ban Ki Moon demonstrates very well what a true communicator looks like, thus is a role model for us IB students. His acquisition and utilization of language demonstrates that it is possible to express knowledge in various ways, while using that skill to successfully work with others to achieve great things.

Principled

As a student, possibly the worst breach of being principled is probably plagiarism. Not only does it bear the most consequence in one's academic record, but it also breaks the tacit trust and respect people have with others when it comes to sharing their knowledge. Plagiarism forms a great example of this criterion because whether one did or did not plagiarize, he or she still demonstrates the qualities of a principled student. If one did not plagiarize, then he or she is demonstrating the "integrity and honesty", and the strong sense of "fairness, justice and respect for the dignity of the individual, groups and communities." If one DID plagiarize, then he or she hopefully should "take responsibility for their own actions and the consequences that accompany them."

Open-minded

When one wears the traditional clothing of another culture, it is almost like wearing the whole history and culture of that tribe/minority/etc. That realization seems to have come to me when I first wore the traditional clothing of a minority group in China when I was in 5th grade. As the clothing was draped over me, the heavy weight of the attire, perhaps more heavy with the weight of the accumulated past of this minority, weighed me down, and however vague it was, I believe it was the first time I had ever experienced in person what a different culture felt like. Ever since, there has been many opportunities for me to experience other cultures in person, and every time, I find myself learning something new from them, whether it be "hello" in their language or their unique style of living. And each time I've learned something, I've become accustomed to coming across different points of view, and how to digest them without too much difficulty. Also I can proudly say that I have, and am willing to grow from the experience.

Caring

The first word that came to my mind when I heard "caring" was service learning. Thanks to the continuous emphasis of our school on the importance of service learning, numerous lessons on it have engrained themselves into my mind. One of the emphasizing points of service learning that we learn is care for our peers. We are taught that before we look to people outside the Shekou community, we should look first towards our own community. We are expected to respect our peers and show empathy and compassion. Other than these somewhat required service learning, we gained opportunities to participate in volunteering service learning. Through annually volunteering for service learning such as Habitat for Humanity and Promised Land, and I'm sure we'll be able to join even more service learning during our IB years, and fulfill the "caring" criterion.

Risk Takers

In 7th grade, I was deeply struck by the notion that one can profoundly develop if they try something new (or something of the sort). Some of the opportunities were barely enough to cause an effect; however, a real opportunity came when we were given options in a method of presentation. Among them was iMovie. My first video, created from iMovie, is the result of my efforts, and the fruit of my risk-taking. Although I was very uncertain as to carry on the task or not, my courage to do so ultimately helped me succeed in my task. The fact that I did not have a person to guide me through the process except a little help here and there makes me proud that I am capable of being independent in exploration of new ideas.

Balanced

Basketball, for me, is a symbol of a balanced life because it requires a careful mediation between academics, sports and personal life. It might also be because I have had trouble with balancing put those three parts of my life before. I recognize that participation in physical activity is crucial in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but what I also recognize is the fact that they are incredibly difficult to do. If you think it's going well, an unexpected obstacle would arise and completely demolish your plans. However difficult this seems to be, it cannot be denied that maintaining a balanced life is crucial in IB, in terms of time. One can possibly even say that having a balanced life means having good time management. In that sense, being balanced in IB in a nutshell means that one can keep their life under control.

Reflective

At this point, I've written so many reflections that it is impossible to count them, if you include the informal ones. In class, in WWW, in service learning trips... Every single aspect of our lives at SIS has included reflection at every moment. I can't say that it was always an enjoyable experience, but I have to admit that it has definitely made me grow both as a student and as a person, however cliche that might sound. I've noticed that I was able to identify my strongest points and my weakest points in a subject, and was also able to propose adequate solutions to improve on those weakest points. These skills have brought me to the level of where I am now, and I am sure they will continue to benefit me as an IB learner by constantly discovering areas of improvement and actually improving on those areas.

IB Diploma Learner Profile

Anna D

To better understand the components of a successful IB learner profile, I have compiled a list of people who embody those traits.

OPEN MINDED

Charles Darwin

To me, Darwin epitomizes the open-minded scholar, and shows the value of questioning one's beliefs. Born and educated in a strict, Christian environment, he continued practicing his faith through his life, yet was able to depart from and challenge aspects of the Christian narrative to objectively approach things he observed in nature. In doing so, he pioneered one of the most revolutionary, and then controversial, concepts of biology of all time: evolution.

REFLECTIVE

Thomas Edison

"I HAVEN'T FAILED, I'VE JUST FOUND 10,000 WAYS THAT WON'T WORK."

Edison is a prime example of the benefit of being reflective. Through is hundreds of failed lightbulb prototypes, he reflected each time and persisted, and ultimately invented one of the most important products of the century.

RISK-TAKERS

Sylvester Stallone

Sylvester Stallone is an audacious risk-taker. At 30, despite earning a college degree, he was broke, yet he refused to find a stable job, in pursuit of a scriptwriting and acting career. He risked it all, and with $30 in his bank account, refused to sell his script until it was agreed that he would also star in it. That movie was Rocky, and earned 10 Academy Award nominees and won the Best Picture award of 1996.

KNOWLEDGE-ABLE

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Arnold Schwarzenegger is knowledgeable in every sense of the word. Primarily known for his success in the bodybuilding world, and justly, given his five Mr. Universe titles and seven Mr. Olympia titles, he also explored other fields, in which he became an expert. Following his success in bodybuilding, he secured key roles in numerous blockbusters, including the ongoing Terminator franchise. He then entered politics, and was elected as mayor of California.

INQUIRERS

Sacha Pfeiffer

Sacha Pfeiffer is renowned for her inquisitive, determined nature. She earned acclaim as an investigative journalist working for the Boston Globe newspaper in 2002, on a series on sexual misconduct in the Boston archdiocese in the 70's. Persisting when research was tough and seeking information from victims and even courts, Sacha exemplifies the inquirer title, further shown in 2015 film, Spotlight, about her team's efforts in the project.

BALANCED

Mark Zuckerberg

Best known for Facebook, a lesser known yet equally notable trait of Mark Zuckerberg is the equilibrium between the physical and emotional aspects of his life. Each year, he embarks on a self improvement project, including learning Chinese to better communicate with his in-laws, and, the next year, to kill every animal he eats for a year to be more conscious of his food intake. He shows that regardless of schedule, we should and can always seek balance.

CARING

Dwayne Johnson

After his success first as a wrestling star then in acting, the 'Rock' has never forgotten his humble roots, and maintains an active presence in his past communities, and consistently works with youth detention programs to try and turn around the lives of people who he feels he can relate with. Beyond that, he makes an effort to show fans he cares, and often visits fans who are unwell, and goes great lengths to make them feel special.

PRINCIPLED

Justin Wren

After winning two national boxing championships, Justin Wren lived a life of drug abuse and depression. He decided to go to Congo where he started the Fight for the Forgotten initiative, to clean water access to the Congolese Pygmies. He works to protect the rights of the Pygmies, who are not considered citizens. He has now pledged to devote his life to helping them, and returned to fighting to earn money and attention for the initiative.

COMMUNICATORS

J.R.

JR is an excellent example of a communicator. A world traveling modern artist, he is known for his large scale outdoors exhibitions. For each project, he gets hundreds of volunteers to work with him, and his projects are often shaped by those who work on them. Each project is unique, and they allow the location's culture to shine through. His works can be found in Paris, New York, Cairo, and many other cities big and small.

THINKERS

Me lol

Okay maybe not the greatest example of a thinker, but refer back to the picture. This was when we were rock climbing during week without walls last year, and I wanted to take pictures but had no pockets. My solution? I put on knee length socks and put my phone in it. That way, I was able to take pictures of the climb. I'm still proud of my creative solution to this somewhat trivial problem, and hope I can apply this to IB.

Thinkers

Mark Zuckerberg is a innovative thinker. He thought of the idea that at first was told it wouldn't be good enough to show of in the world. Yet now he is very famous for his creation, Facebook and is a multimillionaire. At the young age of 32.

Knowledgeable

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein was a very knowledgeable man as he was called many vulgar words growing up. However it was astonishing as he grew up that even tho he could not speak until the age of 7 he could use his mind in the most incredible ways. Therefor he had earned the title of one of the smartest humans ever in this earth. He had a lot of knowledge and although he could not express it through words he expressed it in other ways that were amazing.

Principled

Abraham Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln was very principled as he fought for other peoples rights as the United States president. He was concerned for the rights of the people with color as he expressed a desire for equality in the United States and fought until the death. As even when he was about to lose and everyone was telling him to give up on the war, he kept going and never gave up on the idea of harmony between races.

Open-Minded

Ellen DeGeneres

I believe that Ellen De Generes is a very Open-Minded because she is very kind hinting her show the Ellen Show that promotes people who do great things in life. Such as Kindness and Bravery. She rewards them by granting people in need money, and admire what they have done in life and acknowledge that in the world that we live in theres not many people who do what they do.

Caring

Demi Lovato

Demi Lovato is caring because she cares very deeply about her fans and current issues regarding body image and the way that society does. She promotes self love, with her past experiences with media and when she was younger and struggled with bullying. She brings an excellent perspective and a positive example to a young crowd that struggles with society constantly judging them.

Risk-Taker

Samantha Bricio

amantha Bricio a former volleyball player at University of Southern California and current player of an Italian volleyball club. She is a risk taker because she grew out of her comfort zone at a young age when she joined the u16 National Mexican Volleyball team at age 14 which is the youngest age to apply for that team ever recorded. Further more she grew out of her comfort zone when she left Mexico to LA to attend USC.

Balanced

Water

Water is balanced because it keeps a balance in the world. Other than being the most pure substance on earth in scientific terms being on the scale as a 7 pH. Water is essentially a balance in our lives as everyone needs it and it is represented in the world as a valuable factor to life over all.

Reflective

John Roberts

John Roberts is very reflective as the Justice of the supreme court. He must be very balanced in the decisions he has made in the court with no other opinion that may interfere.
