Pedagogical Strategies for a Concept-Based Curriculum: Generalization
The Enhanced MYP will offer further guidance on pedagogical strategies to develop concept-based teaching and learning practices. A new series of pages on this site is being added over the next few weeks to introduce key strategies for implementing concept-based curriculum in the language and literature classroom.
