​

• use critical thinking skills to be able to understand the nature of the experience that is communicated in a text and the ways in which such an experience is communicated (thinkers)
• nurture their curiosity in connection with the different views and experiences of life present in a text (inquirers)
• engage with issues and ideas of global significance of which they might have been unaware (knowledgeable)
• be encouraged to appreciate the ideas, values and traditions of others in an inquiring way (open- minded)
• understand that the dignity and rights of people everywhere must be respected (principled)
• show empathy, compassion and respect for other people (caring)
• recognize interdependence among people and between people and the world in which they live (balanced)
• listen carefully to the perspectives of other individuals and groups and express as articulately as possible their own perspectives (communicators)
• question their own views about the world (reflective)
• be open to transforming such views and consider how this transformation can lead to action (risk- takers).

TOK CONNECTION: In relating their studies to TOK, students become aware of the fact that although language and literature offer a powerful means of access to knowledge, they are nonetheless a  construction rather than a perfectly mimetic representation of life and reality.

Additionally, in becoming more aware of the perspectives of others through their studies, students develop a stronger sense of their own individual viewpoints, such as their position in time and place. The reflection this prompts creates strong links with TOK.
In language A courses students are constantly engaged with inquiry, critical thinking and reflection as they explore how meaning is generated in texts]]> 2022-06-27 10:00:08 UTC https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231325800 simgeada https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231330102 An extended essay in studies in language and literature provides students with an opportunity to undertake independent research into a literary or linguistic topic of special interest. It also allows students the freedom to explore their preferred texts and authors, applying and transferring the analytical and interpretative skills acquired in studies in language and literature courses. It is intended to promote advanced research and writing skills, intellectual discovery, critical thinking and creativity.]]> 2022-06-27 10:08:47 UTC https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231330102 simgeada https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231333229 An important aim of studies in language and literature courses is to relate the reading experience to aspects of the students’ contexts. The internal assessment, for example, with its emphasis on the connection between themes and attitudes in the texts and current global issues, encourages students to meaningfully apply and transfer the understanding gained in the classroom to the reality of their world. This might translate into a willingness to commit themselves to a CAS experience or project which addresses a global issue in a local context.]]> 2022-06-27 10:14:06 UTC https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231333229 simgeada https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231338163 This course has many relevant topics across some courses like I/GCSE, AP (English Literature and Composition), Philology and Literature Departments of Universities.]]> 2022-06-27 10:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231338163 simgeada https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231338635 For the other disciplines and courses , Psychology Semantics, Sociology, History and even Indigenous Societies can all be regarded in connection with this course.]]> 2022-06-27 10:23:10 UTC https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231338635 simgeada https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231341125 2022-06-27 10:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/simgeada/Bookmarks/wish/2231341125
