[quote=Anonymous]I have a friend who's an IB coordinator in one of the many non-test in schools. This person is often frustrated by the lack of support from school admin and from central office. Sadly, those who oversee the program aren't fully trained in it. In fact, the only people qualified to run it - at both the school and systemwide level - should be former IB DP teachers. Earning a DP diploma is like earning a mini liberal arts degree. It's VERY different from AP courses, which tend to be much more specific and technical. Kids who enter college after participating in IB praise the experience as it helped them develop connections among the content areas, but more importantly, the program taught them how to manage their time well. Anyone who says IB coordinators have it easy are ignorant. off my soapbox now And no, I'm not IB DP trained. I am, however, MYP trained.[/quote]
