幾年前,the Telegraph 教育版嘅文章,睇下都唔錯嘅。節錄部份如下。
"The IB was introduced in the late Sixties to cater for the growing numbers of internationally mobile students who wanted an education that was not tied to any national government’s agenda. More than that, it sought to bring together Cold War children from the West and the East, and thereby promote future peace.
Even today, the International Baccalaureate Organization is driven by a somewhat grand mission statement, which reads: “The International Baccalaureate aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.”
Of the four study programmes now offered by the IBO, by far the most popular in the UK is the IB diploma. It is not just an alternative to A-levels but an entirely different two-year programme of learning.
During the course, students pick one subject from each of six subject groups – languages, sciences, the arts, and so on – and study three of these to a higher level. In addition, they take a course in “the theory of knowledge” (TOK), write an extended essay and participate in “creativity, action, service” – a nonexamined module that focuses on — yes — creativity, sport and community service.
Grading at the end comes down to a points score: marks out of seven for each subject, and three possible additional points for the combined TOK and essay, for a maximum of 45 points."
