As you read through them, think what each would look like in the classroom. What would the teacher be doing? What would the students be doing?

Teaching in IB programmes is: 
  • inquiry-based—provoking curiosity in order to structure and sustain exploration 
  • concept-driven—planning and teaching through concepts that are transferable to new contexts 
  • contextualized—reaching beyond the scope of individual subjects to establish relevance 
  • collaborative—promoting effective teamwork and purposeful/productive collaboration 
  • differentiated—providing access to learning for a diversity of learners 
  • informed by assessment—balancing assessment of, and for, learning. 

Task: 
1. What would a classroom look like that was doing the opposite of the "six pillars"?  
2. Is you experience as a student closer the 'six pillars' view or its opposite?
3. Reflect on lessons where your teaching has been more aligned with the 'six pillars" (and lessons that have not).
