Yes teaching, not learning. This Tuesday (20th September) Year 12 had made several presentations about IB that we presented to Years 10 and 11. Each topic was provided by a different house. The topics included:
- The learners profile
- The six subject groups
- TOK (Theory of Knowledge) and EE (Extended Essay)
- CAS
My house and me got the honors to do TOK and EE. Because these are two different groups we split up into two groups - one that will do TOK and other - EE. I did a presentation about EE. For this we had to plan and initiate activities, work collaboratively and of course show perseverance and commitment. We also engaged with issues of global importance hence IB diploma is an international programme. We also had to consider the ethical implications of my actions (as Year 12s we have big influence over our schools younger students - we are role-models for them, therefore we need to act accordingly).
This was not just an oppurtunity for Years 10 and 11 to learn about IB but also a benefit or us Year 12s because I got to learn some things I didnt know, especially about EE because we weren't told much about it. I think we did a good job presenting the IB to future IB students and at least for me it was the first time speaking to a big audience and I have to say I quite enjoyed it and that definitely undertook a new challenge, increased my awareness of my strengths and areas for growth, but I still developed new presentation skills.
