IB Exchange: Action through Participation

​Welcome to the third installment of an eight-part series on action through the IB Exchange.  This guide will build upon prior understanding of individual and collective action (part one) and ways to support action (part two). You will need to have prior understanding of these concepts to be able to apply the content of this guide. 

The IB defines participation as “being actively involved in the learning community and showing commitment to contributing as individuals and as members of a group”.​

We will explore participation through the lens How We Organize Ourselves, which is one of the trandsdisciplinary themes in a PYP programme of inquiry. 

Let's have some fun merging individual and collective action, the ways to support action and the PYP transdisciplinary themes. 

The majority of the ideas within this guide can be found in Principles into Practice: The Learner.  To get your own copy of this guide, please look below for directions. ​
