The subjects they want now, the skills they’ll need forever
No matter what and where your son or daughter goes on to study, no matter what career he or she decides to pursue, online learning and online collaboration will play an important role.
Pamoja Education's online IB courses provide students with the knowledge, skills, and motivation they need right now - to develop a deep understanding of a new subject and to succeed in their IB internal and external assessments. At the same time, the courses provide students with an in-depth, independent understanding of how to use the Internet as a platform for serious and structured learning, and for collaborating productively with peers from around the world. These are skills which will be important to their academic and professional futures for many years to come.

We have designed a questionnaire to enable your students to develop a greater understanding for the experience of online learning and identify any obstacles they may encounter in this new environment. Asking students to complete this form will allow them to self-assess their strengths and to identify potential challenges that they can overcome in advance.
