I don't like the MYP Interact 'workbook' for Year 6/7 students. Reminds me very much of a 'My First Bible' or something, indoctrinating kids into thinking that the world really is divided into the Areas of Interaction and suggesting insidiously that if teachers are not following the IBO . line, they're not 'good' teachers. And how about the goobledeegook of converting everything into a score out of 8 (for Language B) then eventually it becoming a score out of 7, but you don't really have to use it until kids are in Year 10?! I agree that the mantra of the Areas of Interaction and Significant Concepts get in the way of real teaching and learning. But let's not forget the bigger picture here folks- IBO accreditation looks very good on school letter heads when promoting to parents, it provides a career ladder for classroom refugees who can't DO, but who want to make a cushy career out of travelling and telling teachers how to do their jobs, and the real purpose of course behind the IB (MYP and DP) is to funnel a VERY lucrative Asian/European student body into Western Universities. At the end of the day you can work and exist in a MYP environment, but don't EVER think it's THE way to educate kids, it's just ONE way that's happened to corner the market. And VERY lucrative for the companies that run and operate international schools.
