Category 1, 2, and 3 MYP Workshops in Portland, OR (IB Americas)

Middle Years Programme workshop offerings

* The Subject Specific Seminar is a tremendous opportunity for experienced teachers to fully acquaint themselves with changes to a particular subject area. The teaching and learning framework, the guidelines and requirements for implementation, the objectives and criteria, and the assessment tools and task types will be explained and exemplified.

This is a Category 3 workshop to officially launch and present the changes to the Humanities subject area. The IB publishes new subject guides and accompanying teacher support material in the early part of a given calendar year. We will offer Subject Specific Seminars at face-to-face events within the first 3 months of publication of the new guide. All workshops held after the Subject Specific Seminar (online and face-to-face) will work to the new guide; any workshops held before the Subject Specific Seminar will still work to the current guide.

Academic staff from the MYP development team and/or a member of the curriculum review team will open the workshop with a presentation of the changes. They will also be on hand throughout the workshop to answer questions and participate in discussion.
