Module Code 單元編號 PFS3032 Module Title 單元名稱 LEARNING AND TEACHING IN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS Module Synopsis 單元概要 Using theoretical frameworks such as social constructivism theory, students will study the philosophical underpinning of learning and teaching in international schools, with a particular focus on the International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes. Differentiation in teaching and learning is a key feature of international schools, given the diversity in their communities. The course introduces students to theories of learning and approaches to teaching, related particularly to multicultural, multilingual and transnational environments. It explores and compares strategies supporting different approaches to learning and teaching, such as inquiry-based and transdisciplinary learning and teaching. A key question consequently frames students’ learning in the course: How can teachers address learning diversity through social constructivist and other approaches to learning?
