Fostering Curiosity and Engagement in the Middle Years through the MYP Curriculum

This workshop will share with non-IB educators how the MYP (Middle Years Program) curriculum is structured, with a special focus on how the inquiry approach stimulates the learners’ curiosity, driving greater engagement. While the IB “terminology” may initially appear complex (concept-based curriculum, global context, phases, Approaches to Learning, assessment types/rubrics…) Julia and Emilie will show how the MYP framework supports teachers design a concept-based unit of learning and how it supports students to gain greater independence in their learning. This workshop is of interest to all Y5-12 teachers and aims to demystify the International Baccalaureate approach while inspiring teachers to enrich their existing practice with elements of the MYP curriculum to foster innovation.
