Description

This unit builds on the work covered in the previous International Baccalaureate units. It addresses the values of the teacher award schemes and the Domains of Knowledge relating to the International Baccalaureate Primary and Middle Years Programme. The focus is on student examining their own professional practice based on the Domains of Knowledge. The evaluation of the relevant International Baccalaureate programme is also addressed.

Please Note: If it’s your first time studying a Curtin University subject you’ll need to complete their compulsory ‘Academic Integrity Program’. It only takes two hours to complete online, and provides you with vital information about studying with Curtin University. The Academic Integrity Program is compulsory, so if it’s not completed your subject grades will be withheld.
