First of all, the training goal of IB course is universal. IB course aims to cultivate children's qualities in 10: exploration spirit, independent thinking ability, communication ability, reflection ability, knowledge, adherence to the principle of being a man, self-confidence, openness, compassion, courage to take risks and all-round development of morality, intelligence and physique. This is in line with the direction of China's basic education reform. The Ministry of Education also actively advocates that schools should cultivate students' critical thinking and innovative consciousness, be brave in exploration and practice, have a sense of responsibility and compassion, and have an international perspective and the ability to actively communicate.
Second, the training mode of IB course can be used for reference. First of all, IB curriculum does not emphasize that every student should complete all courses in all fields, but encourages them to aim at developing themselves. On the basis of giving full play to one's interests and hobbies, and combining with one's future career direction, choose the appropriate course category. Furthermore, IB course has three exams, which are called core courses. It plays an important role in improving students' critical thinking ability and adapting to future university study. For example, IBO headquarters requires all students to participate in at least 150 hours of community service during their high school studies, and to issue practice certificates; IBO also requires all students to write an extended paper of 4,000 words independently in English; Finally, each student should be able to write an independent research on a specific topic in English and accept the defense. This model is to train children into graduate students. It can be said that most universities in China can't do such a training model.
Third, the career development model of IB course teachers is advanced. As an IB teacher, you must have a three-level goal of professional development, participate in IB regularly, and also participate in the training and examination of teachers in the same field at home and abroad, obtain relevant certificates and obtain IB teaching qualifications. This intensive and immersive professional quality training, as well as interdisciplinary research and discussion in different fields, exchange of teaching methods and iterative updating based on complementary advantages are of great significance to teachers' professional growth.
Fourthly, the most essential core idea of IB course is to cultivate success consciousness and self-confidence. Bound by the long-term examination-oriented education system, our children have little room to play freely. Taking scores as the only admission principle has buried many talents who should have grown up well. On the other hand, IB course gives a lot of space in personal planning and diversified growth. Even in the above-mentioned topic selection and writing, the IBO course has released great flexibility, requiring each student to consider from his own interests. All these truly embody the concept of quality words and personalized education.
With the globalization of global economy, it is the direction of every country's efforts to cultivate international talents with international vision and maternal cultural awareness, and it is also the understanding of the future development of education in all countries. The existence of IB course provides us with a good frame of reference.
