Workshop Summary:
This workshop will offer an opportunity for professional development to experienced personal and professional skills (PPS) teachers, as well as educators from either a school that has decided to apply for IB authorisation or recently appointed to a school with an existing IB Career-related Programme offer. The workshop will provide an in-depth look at the IB mission and philosophy reflected in the CP as a programme of international education as well as the context of the PPS course in relation to the CP Core and CP as a whole. You will come away with different strategies for implementing the required components of PPS to suit the needs, backgrounds and career-related interests of students and have strategies to ensure PPS course planning is pedagogically underpinned, with supporting examples from a range of contexts. Additionally, you will develop a new understanding of PPS themes and the role of the course within the CP; share strategies that support successful delivery of PPS that reflect Diploma Programme (DP) and career-related components of the CP; and review, develop and share teaching and learning experiences that support effective implementation and assessment of PPS.
