21st century skills

No matter what and where your child 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 Diploma courses online provide students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in their IB internal and external assessments. The courses also give students an in-depth understanding of how to use the internet as a platform for learning and collaborating with peers from around the world. That’s important for their education now – and getting more important every day.

Students in Pamoja Education’s online courses will use standard Web 2.0 tools to research, analyze and above all discuss and share their knowledge with their classmates and their online teacher. They will learn not just how to use these tools, but how to make the most of them.

All the courses share these features:

  • highly interactive (student-teacher) and collaborative (student-student)
  • making use of the most important Web 2.0 tools (blogs, wikis, podcasts, RSS feeds, etc.)
  • developed and taught by experienced IB teachers, specially trained in online pedagogy
  • the class size is between 10 and 25 students

All courses are subject to the IB’s rigourous online course approval standards. Internal assessments are fully recognized by the IB, and are equivalent in rigour and status to those in a face-to-face classroom. Final assessments are taken under normal examination conditions, in your child’s own school.
