of the supervisor, to include reference to world studies
interdisciplinary extended essay

approaches to inquiry in the DP/CP classroom
• design course outlines that align with curriculum
requirements, aims and assessment objectives of the subject,
IB terminology and the relevant standards
• design student engagements for interactions with the
syllabus concepts and content
• articulate the assessment requirements
• create formative assessment tasks that will equip students
with the required factual, procedural and conceptual
knowledge that support the summative assessment task(s)
• use assessment criteria to make judgments about student
achievement (criterion-related, best fit)
• interact with and explore the TSM and subject-specific
teaching and learning resources on the programme resource
centre and in the programme communities throughout the
curriculum life cycle
• select and analyse suitable resources that support teaching
and learning in an IB classroom
• promote the importance of academic integrity
• participate in professional learning communities within and
beyond your school to facilitate the transfer of professional
development
