Workshop Overview:

This workshop is based on fostering interdisciplinary teaching and learning in the MYP guide. The workshop will support schools and teachers in their efforts to structure meaningful interdisciplinary inquiry through providing a thorough look into planning, teaching, learning and assessing of interdisciplinary units.

This interactive workshop is designed to provide step-by-step guidance on how to prepare interdisciplinary teaching and learning strategies effectively, from identifying possible interdisciplinary threads, to designing multifaceted questions of inquiry in the context of purposeful syntheses and assessing student´s interdisciplinary understandings. For this purpose, you will unpack the interdisciplinary aims, objectives and criteria and explore ways to practically organize interdisciplinary teaching and learning in your school context through collaborative practices.

Through a practical hands-on approach, participants will understand the importance of this foundational MYP element and how promoting interdisciplinary teaching and learning leads to school growth and deeper student understanding.
