Why do all of this?
Our name and reputation is one of our most precious assets.
A professional organization needs a professional identity.
© International Baccalaureate Organization 2007Page 15
Why do all of this?
More and more, we need people to recognize us:• University admissions officers• Governments• Donors• Educators, parents, students, school boards
An identity built around our values will build commitment within the IB community.

Ethics and ethical education
Ethics: the study of what is morally right or wrong and the examination of moral truth in action
Ethical education: education that guides and supports students and acts them to consider their own choices and actions as they make them, the choices and actions of others, and how theirs and others’ actions may affect the well-being of other people, their society and the world in general
© International Baccalaureate Organization 2007
Kohlberg’s Stages of Moral Development
Pre-conventional: obedience and punishment; right behavior means acting in one’s own interest
Conventional: “good boy/girl”; law and order: duty Post-conventional: social contract; principled
conscience – genuine interest in the world of others Lawrence Kohlberg, Harvard Center for Moral Education
© International Baccalaureate Organization 2007
ConclusionBoston Seminar on Ethical Education : March 2005
Effective education in ethics in schools does not happen through courses in ethics but through approaching ethical issues or problems through structured inquiry and critical thinking and through developing an environment for learning and a school ethos that consciously addresses ethics in theory and on a practical day to day level. Ethical or moral understanding is formed through the learner developing affective commitments.

Stage 3: Planning for learning
Given the targeted understandings, other unit goals and the assessment evidence identified, what will I teach each lesson of the unit?
How will I document this aspect of my planning?

Reflections include students and teachers
Stage 4: Unit ongoing reflections and evaluationStudents
What did the students find compelling?
What student-initiated inquiries arose from the learning?
From the evidence, what enduring
understandings did the students construct?
Possible disciplinary and interdisciplinary connections
How does this connect to earlier/later grades/units?
What interdisciplinary connections, if any,
might be forged through the Areas of Interaction with other units?
Assessment Were students able to demonstrate their
learning?
Did my (summative and formative) assessment tasks allow students to
demonstrate their learning objectives identified for this unit?
Data collection What data am I collecting?
For what purposes will the data be used?

Harvard Project Zero
The IBO is currently in collaboration with Harvard Project Zero (under the School of Education at Harvard University) to produce a document that will explain the process of interdisciplinary teaching and learning

1-3-5 Objectives
Project Outline:• Draft objectives for years 1 and 3 are being written at IBCA to
act as discussion documents for meetings have been taking place. Between 2 and 3 teachers in each subject group are being invited to participate in two day meeting at IBCA.

HOT: Harmonizing of Terminology
IBCA staff is reviewing terminology in all three programmes in effort to harmonize terms across programmes.
One such example is in Judith Fabian’s position statement on teaching and learning in IB programmes
Another example is the removal of Latin terms in all programmes

Change in terminology

Future of the Middle Years Programme
The IB has not changed the original conception of theMYP framework in any way. The programme has,however, developed significantly since 1992 and willcontinue to do so as more schools become involved.
Current thinking in the MYP represents a combinationof wide-ranging research and experience—excellentpractice derived from a variety of national systems
andindependent schools.
