Can an experienced MYP Coordinator benefit from using this toolkit?
Definitely! With resources and best practices for every MYP subject, our MYP Projects toolkit includes a wide variety of ideas to prepare your students for their Project and support your MYP teachers as they supervise this project. This toolkit includes all the updated subject guide information that was published in February 2021.
How does the toolkit help me as an MYP Coordinator or Projects Supervisor?
This toolkit includes downloadable & printable resources to help you in the planning and organizing steps of MYP Projects, ideas for all 8 MYP subjects with connections to the Community & Personal Project, and assessment samples. Learn from IBEN members who facilitate workshops for the IB on MYP Projects in an easy-to-use toolkit format.
Can I use this for all the teachers at my school and district?
Yes! This toolkit is a great resource for teachers who are supervising the MYP Projects for the first time or just want to build their knowledge in the Projects.
You can also bundle this toolkit with our other Ibtrove toolkits to create a customized learning plan for your teachers!
“For teachers seeking to aid their students in mastering MYP Projects, the MYP Projects Teacher Toolkit is an exceptional resource. It offers a detailed guide that teachers can follow to support their students' success in the MYP Projects course. The toolkit is particularly helpful for teachers who wish to gain an understanding of the course or those seeking to refresh their knowledge of it.”
Paul Howard
Teacher for MYP Projects
“I am a fan of anything that helps educators and I am a fan of the MYP. I find that the MYP is a great way to teach global citizenship and students are learning how to learn (they are developing transferable skills). I wanted to find the best resources for teachers to help them teach MYP Projects and I found this. The MYP Projects Teacher Toolkit is a collection of downloadable resources and graphics that help teachers organize, plan and implement MYP Projects in the classroom. I found that the information was presented in a clear and easy-to-understand way and will be a great resource for teachers to use when teaching MYP Projects.”
Maire Geoghegan‑Quinn
MYP Projects
“The MYP Projects Teacher Toolkit provides teachers with a comprehensive roadmap to assist their students in excelling in the MYP Projects program. The toolkit is especially useful for instructors looking to either acquaint themselves with the course or update their existing knowledge of it.”
