Pamoja offers its courses exclusively through IB World Schools, and is currently accepting enrolments for two-year courses beginning in September 2010.
As an IB educator, you know the tremendous scope of the Diploma Programme curriculum – but you also know that schools have limited resources. Now there is a way to offer your students a greater choice of subjects and increased scheduling flexibility – while simultaneously helping them to develop new study skills.
After a successful start in 2009-10, Pamoja Education has already expanded its offerings to encompass eight courses in four Diploma Programme subject groups. Over the next few years, working in close cooperation with the IB, Pamoja plans to develop an even wider range of courses, covering all Diploma Programme subject groups plus the three core requirements of the theory of knowledge, the extended essay and creativity, action, service (CAS).
Diploma courses online:
- allow your school to expand its subject offering
- help to resolve scheduling conflicts
- are taught by experienced IB Diploma teachers specially trained in online pedagogy
- ensure students develop 21st century learning skills
- provide opportunities for global classrooms and high levels of student-to-student interaction
Quality assurance is of the utmost importance to you, to the IB, and to Pamoja Education. To that end, quality will be assured through:
- a trained site-based coordinator who will support students and monitor progress
- IB-approved professional development for all online teachers
- strict adherence to IB’s subject guides
- ongoing monitoring of course delivery by Pamoja Education and IB staff.
- annual third party evaluation of course quality and performance.
