[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IB is one of the reasons why our society has so many issues. So much more could be done with our school curriculum is IB we taken out completely. Less is more![/quote] It teaches critical thinking. That is what is sorely missing in today’s society.[/quote] Other courses teach critical thinking at lower cost, which is something you’d realize if you engaged in some critical thinking of your own. The small number of IB advocates tout IB because they like the IB buzzwords (“global citizens.” “life-long learners,” etc), see IB as a school within their generally low-performing schools, or know IB is what provides them with the option to transfer their kids to AP schools. None of this justifies the higher cost to FCPS. [/quote]
