What is ISM?

I am currently participating in Wakeland's Independent Study & Mentorship program to learn more about my topic, pediatric anesthesiology. My work throughout the class will be published in my digital portfolio.

All About ISM

The ISM (Independent Study & Mentorship) Program is an elective offered by FISD schools. Students selected to be in the program conduct a series of interviews and research assessments on a topic of interest. Upon selecting them, the student can work closely with a mentor specializing in their topic to gain real-world experience and knowledge in that field. Throughout the year, the student develops an original work and final product to be presented.

​

ISM develops the following skills in students:

  • Professionalism

  • Communication

  • Personal Branding
