Workshop Summary:

What skills positively influence and support a student's approach to life-long learning? All IB programmes develop the approaches to learning (ATL) skill categories of communication, social, self-management, research and thinking.

  • Develop a deeper understanding of ATL as a way for students to acquire and use skills developed over time in order to access learning.

  • Consider contemporary research to apply metacognitive strategies throughout the learning process, with an emphasis on assessment as learning.

  • Design the curriculum to encourage students to build these skills.

  • Reflect on how developing affective, cognitive and meta-cognitive skills using a variety of strategies may increase the capacity of learners to become self-regulated and intrinsically motivated.
