Eesha Agrawal – Research and Essays

“Writing the Math IA is an extremely tedious procedure as one needs to have a balance of math and writing. Initially I came to CourseLeap with an idea that I had formulated for my IA, and was extremely confused about how to carry forward that idea. However, one session with Ms. Dhingra cleared everything up. She helped me narrow down my research topic to one that implemented my combined interest in math and Art by exposing me to previous explorations, new research papers and her own ideas. After the first session, I had already formulated a structure for my exploration and was clear about how to go about writing it. I used this structure to write the first part of my exploration and then got extensive feedback for it from CourseLeap. I continued implementing all the feedback given to me and soon finished the entire exploration. Throughout the process, Ms. Dhingra guided me using the criteria and rubric provided by IB. This helped me write an exploration that was effective, coherent and interesting. As a design student I wanted to research the combination of Math and design and because my research was connected to this, I enjoyed the entire process.”
