What Research Says About the IB Programme Standards and Practices

Room: Ontario

presented by David Ogden, IB Consultant,

What connections do the IB's programme standards have to school improvement research? Learn how the standards and practices align with research-proven practices. Participants will review selected research studies to see the overlap between research-based practices and IB's recommended practices for PYP, MYP and Diploma Programme schools. Schools can see how they follow the research when they implement the IB's standards and practices.
