Creating Authentic Units - MYP - Category 3 - Virtual


RECOMMENDED FOR:

Experienced Middle Years (MYP) subject teachers and coordinators who are interested in developing the learning culture of their schools to more closely reflect the values and mission of the IB.


Please note this workshop will be delivered virtually.


Workshop Summary:

This workshop will provide concrete strategies to assist teachers in creating a learning culture that connects cognitive and constructivist learning theories to MYP real-world assessment practices. Effective teaching is a process, not a technique, and is rooted in authentic assessment practices. There is a deep exploration of how formative and summative assessments work together to create a well-defined approach to making learning meaningful and authentic.

This workshop aims to:

  • develop your understanding of how assessment informs the teaching and learning of students

  • provide you with a variety of strategies and pedagogies that support the practical application of MYP assessment philosophy

  • allow you to reflect on how the design of assessment impacts the culture of teaching and learning in your schools, beginning with writing a school assessment policy
