[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"You have to look at how AP or IB is delivered in the individual school. A great deal of IB is based on pre-packaged content from the IBO that requires little individualized mentoring." In IB the kids have to write, write, write. This can't be "pre-packaged". IB is completely focused on "individualized mentoring" and feedback on writing. This is why it's so successful at getting students to think. Or maybe you meant to write "AP"...[/quote] They can write all they want. It doesn't mean they know how to write, write anything of value, or receive much individual attention. Just about all the best schools in NoVa are AP. You can keep your silly IB "programme" and call your kids "global citizens" all you want. They still attend sub-par schools that most people avoid if they have any better options. [/quote]
