Concept-driven learning and teaching helps makes connections across content areas.

# data[].attributes.body
What resources are available to use to show my staff the benefits of concept-driven teaching and learning?

# data[].attributes.body
Using the IBO community and resources will be a good place to find more information. Also, working with other coordinators in my county will help to build my knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that the units of inquiry at my school need to focus more on concept-driven learning. Our students will benefit greatly on seeing the key concepts as something that ties their learning together.

# data[].attributes.body
As a result of this reading I have some great information to share with the staff in my building. I think that my staff will benefit from learning about how concept-driven teaching and learning will help our students achieve more.

What ways can I support my students to be risk-takers so I'm not "giving them the answers"?

# data[].attributes.body
I will touch base with my ib coordinator as well as access the nano PD resources.

# data[].attributes.body
That focusing only on the essential knowledge in our curriculum is not helping our students become life-long learners. They need the opportunity to explore and discover information.

# data[].attributes.body
Concept-driven learning helps student obtain a meaningful learning experience about the concept and make connections from prior knowledge to acquire new knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that concept-driven learning can be began by prevocational questions to guide students to the significant experiences/knowledge necessary to acquire instead of drilling the infomration we want them to receive as this allows for the outcome to me limitless.

# data[].attributes.body
I will do a better job of explaining the purpose of IB to parents. Each time I have an IB training I learn more to benefit myself and my students.

# data[].attributes.body
Synergistic thinking is necessary for students to transfer knowledge from one situation to another.
