What fellow educators say about this toolkit:
"Finally a course more specifically for Design!!! The IBO courses teach you how to fill out the Unit template, but not what to do in class and how to present the content of it. I would definitely recommend it."
Jon Arryn
IB Teacher
“Using Ibtrove courses I was able to get all 20 of my IB teachers trained quickly with minimal disruption to their schedule. Plus we saved quite a bit of money which was the cherry on top.”
Victoria
IB Teacher
“The IBDP EconomicsTeacher Toolkit was created by an IBDP Economics teacher to help other IBDP Economics teachers to teach their classes. This toolkit is a great resource for both new and experienced IBDP Economics teachers.
