After two years of isolation. social distancing and cancelled IB assessments, let's look at what we learned about the 2020 curriculum and about ourselves as educators. We will take a thorough look at the listening comprehension component, which will finally be introduced in May 2022. We will explore what we have learned from administering the new oral exams in very challenging circumstances and we will clarify how to help our students be confident and successful on the written production exam. We will leave our COVID induced apprehension and insecurity behind and we will emerge confident and sure that we are, in fact, master IB teachers.
Our session will also include "accommodations to the oral", "a better understanding of text types", and your burning questions.
