Is nothing happening in the #ibdp world? TOK? EE? CAS? Subject specific? This place could be YOURS to share ideas. DM for details.

and always same teachers... so what would happen if students could miss a culminating if it is not published?? how would teachers react? would it alter educator actions? would be an interesting piece of action research

I get my teachers complete cal at the beginning of the year. Then I ensure to prompt deadlines and follow up if they are meeting it or not. I think, many times you hv to treat Ts like kids and remind. This year I am thinking of linking cal with Google cal for auto reminders 😂

i'm not thinking in terms of student submission, but rather if teachers do not give the correct notice or do not add an assessment to the cal - then students could refuse to complete it. its an interesting mind piece of fostering student agency

Yes, we emphasise on giving enough time and prior notices. Though largely followed, cal is tentative and we keep margin of uncertainty and exceptions. There are always few late subs and we accept that. However, teachers keep track and send reminders to minimise these.

must have at least two weeks notice, not be on a day with more than one other culminating for any one studnet and be published in the cal. But the cal bit is always the problematic part, not massively...but

I inherited an IA Calendar template in around 2006 that had been the backbone of all my planning ever since... But have at times toyed with the idea of giving agency to students.. An culminating task (end of unit etc)

Hey Katherine, so the template has all subjects written in a first row and the column has months and weeks. Teachers put up IA/IOC practice/drafts/finals tentative weeks for their respective subject. Since they can see each other’s timeline they are mindful to avoid clash.
Q2: What strategies are being used for low stakes spaced retrieval and avoiding the reporting crunch of deadlines?

Hi everyone, I am Khadija, DPC since 3 years @ilmesters , we have officially started offering DP this year. Previously have taught DP Biology for two years.
Q1: How do you help manage tests in the DP? Do you help avoid conflicts with your IA assessment calendar?

In a first for India, Delhi signs agreement with the IB for 30 state schools. IB Director of Outreach Haif Bannayan (@HaifJordan) notes “We are excited about the possibility of this pilot extending to more schools in the future”.
