其實很多家長都搞不清甚麼是IB﹐只知不是傳統教學﹐又有D似活動教學﹐學費又比較高。 看起來﹐IB的理念和NSS的通識科差不多﹐都是著重批判思考﹐也沒有課本﹐大家有沒有看上週的新聞透視﹖
一科通識﹐都搞到教局和所有中學頭都大﹐辦I ...
Frankly speaking, the DP part of IB is more for connecting/preparing IB-trained students to enter University, that's part of the reasons why there are exams for DP but no exams (just assessment) for the rest. In fact, during DP study, there is a core subject like an extended version of 通識 called "Theory of Knowledge", which encourages each student to reflect on the nature of knowledge by critically examining different ways of knowing (perception, emotion, language and reason) and different kinds of knowledge (scientific, artistic, mathematical and historical). Adding to this is the effort to write an extended essay on one of the subjects studied. Getting good result in IB DP is obviously no easier than A level.
A school need to have enough qualified IB teachers/admin to get certified, that means it either need to hire (from abroad or limited local pool), or to train its teachers/admin and get them pass the assessment. A candidate school thus need to spend the time and money to eventually become certified.
Btw, doing IB DP only is a pragmatic way to connect its students to U world-wide, but perhaps the true value of IB lies in the long term training of youngsters to grow-up and mature in a rich and non-spoon-fed environment.
