I am incredibly new to the IB world. I have never attended or been associated with an IB program.

I see the revolutionary value of instilling a global sense into materials so learning feels more “alive” and relevant.

I am excited to find ways I can introduce IB values into my planning cycle and instruction.

I’m at the beginning of my journey with IB. An IB education can be a revolutionary experience by allowing students and teachers to think outside the box to create better understanding and tie in their learning to their every day lives. I am excited to view teaching through new lenses, and a challenge I anticipate is making cross curricular connections to my subject area.

# data[].attributes.body
I am new to IB, although I have heard of IB before. IB education is revolutionary in changing the way you think and learn, it makes you step out of your comfort and explore new ideas. I am excited to help my students on their journey to becoming lifelong learners that are willing to learn about creating a better world. I think the biggest challenges will come from having to find ways to make things more reflective and in a global context.

# data[].attributes.body
I am new to this whole IB program but I feel like I understand it more because I came to this. I think as I continue to work and be apart of this program I will continue to get use to it and understand it more. I think it will be a bit challenging to make sure that I am implementing it into the learning environment.

# data[].attributes.body
As a new teacher in the IB program, I believe that this is a great experience for all students. They are able to make connections to the world around them through their lessons. I am very excited to learn more and work with my students to make this a successful year.

I feel I fit in this journey with my personal experiences and educational background.
I’m excited for the NEWNESS and concepts that come from IB and implementing them.
I feel the only challenge to be of learning IB in more depth, but once learned will come naturally.

# data[].attributes.body
I find it comforting that as a teacher who is new to an IB campus, many of the philosophies and structures within IB are elements I incorporate in my classroom already.
Coming from another state, I feel that the challenges I will encounter are more about new dynamics, expectations, and all that comes with a learning curve.

I am very new to IB. I am sure there is a lot I will figure out this year, but I feel much more able to wrap my head around it after this training. I feel like my own teaching principles line up with IB really well and I am excited to adapt my lesson plans. As for challenges, I am very aware of all I don't know yet and I'm sure I will hit some roadblocks along the way.
