We all aim for a room full of engaged and motivated learners, but how can we focus student attention to develop effective learners?

The example provided will be primarily from Grade 9-12 science classes, but can be applied in all subjects and school phases.

A gathering for all MYP science professionals to collaborate, share best practices, exchange ideas, and problem-solve common challenges. Come ready to share expertise and ask questions. We'll share resources we've found helpful, and those that were not. We'll discuss strategies to solve common curriculum, language, and behavioural issues in a lab environment.
