Middle Years Programme (MYP) Vocabulary
Approaches to Learning (ATL): ATL skills represent general and subject specific learning skills that
students will develop and apply during the MYP and beyond. These skills are explicitly taught within a unit
of inquiry in an effort to develop an individual’s awareness of how they learn best. The five
ATL categories are:
• Research
• Communication
• Self-management
• Social
• Thinking

Command terms: Specific terms (in bold print) located within MYP rubrics that define the levels of
cognitive demand for each descriptor. Command terms cannot be altered or removed when making
task-specific clarifications (see below).

Criterion: Each MYP subject area has a set of criterion with specific MYP objectives. Subject specific
criterion are located within the subject guide. Each criterion has its own rubric.

Fundamental Concepts: The three fundamental concepts that are rooted in the IB mission statement are:
• Holistic Learning
• Intercultural Awareness
• Communication

Global Context: The Global Contexts are the lens through which a unit of instruction is taught. Teaching
subjects through these contexts allows teaching & learning to focus on attitudes, values, and skills. There are
six global contexts:
• Identities and relationships
• Orientation in space and time
• Personal and cultural expression
• Scientific and technical innovation
• Globalization and sustainability

Key Concept: Each subject guide has between 3-5 concepts that must be incorporated into units of study.
These key concepts help to create the statement of inquiry within a unit of study.

Learner Profile: A set of 10 attributes that describe the kind of student who exemplifies the spirit of the
MYP
• Inquirers
• Knowledgeable
• Thinkers
• Communicators
• Principled
• Open-minded
• Caring
• Risk-takers
• Balanced
• Reflective

2
Lines of Inquiry: Lines of inquiry are questions that provoke student inquiry towards the development of
the statement of inquiry. There are three types of lines of inquiry:
• Factual- content based
• Conceptual- big picture, broad in scope, and transferrable
• Debatable- engaging and provocative

MYP Objectives: A set of subject specific statements aligned to Standards that describe the skills,
knowledge & understanding that will be assessed.

MYP Subject Areas: The eight subject areas taught in the MYP are:

• Literature & Language (Reading & Language Arts)


• Language Acquisition (Spanish/French)
• Individuals and Societies (Social Studies)
• Science
• Mathematics
• The Arts (Music & Art)
• Physical Education & Health
• Design

MYP Rubrics: Each subject has one MYP rubric for each of its criterion.

Personal Project: A project completed in the final year of the MYP (year 5) that is the culmination of the
students’ experience in the MYP.

Related Concepts: The related concepts are used in conjunction with the key concepts to create a
statement of inquiry. Teachers may use the suggested concepts found in each subject guide, or they may
include their own.

Statement of Inquiry: The Statement of inquiry is a declarative statement that directly links the key
concept(s) and related concepts to the global context.

Task-specific Clarifications: An assessment grid, adapted by the teacher, which better identifies how the
achievement level descriptors can be addressed by the student for a given assessment task.

Unit Plan: a series of lessons, organized and focused through global contexts, statements of inquiry, and
lines of inquiry, which are designed to enable students to achieve the MYP objectives.

SUPPORTING STUDENTS THROUGH INQUIRY

✔ Explore real world issues


✔ Encourage higher order thinking
✔ Use the Common Language
✔ Go beyond memorization
✔ Collaborate with peers
✔ Teacher becomes facilitator
✔ Practice personal & social responsibility
✔ Students explore, experiment, analyze, and discover

6
The Design Cycle

The Design Cycle is the basis of the MYP approach to technology. The cycle is the model of
thinking and the strategy to help students investigate problems. With this cycle they will
investigate, plan, create, and evaluate the products/solutions that they generate. Although the
Design Cycle is a requirement of all Design classes, students would benefit from using the
Design Cycle in other content areas that lend themselves to the process.

Planning MYP Units of Inquiry
THE PLANNER

In order for subject content to be understood in context, the written and the taught curriculum
must be brought together in a meaningful synthesis through common planning, teaching,
assessing, and reflecting.

Each unit should…


• stand alone as a significant, engaging, relevant, and challenging learning experience.

• contribute to a coherent, school-wide commitment to inquiry (see Supporting Students


Through Inquiry p. 7) that is framed by the Global Contexts.
• be driven by Lines of Inquiry that are engaging and conceptually based.

• involve students in a range of learning experiences planned in response to the MYP Lines of
Inquiry.
• build on prior knowledge of the students.

• be constructed and conducted with the Learner Profile in mind in order to promote positive
attitudes.
• require students to reflect on their learning, and encourage them to engage in responsible
action.

*MYP units can be subject based or interdisciplinary in nature

17
MYP Key Concepts
・Aesthetics deals with the characteristics, creation, meaning and perception of beauty and taste. The study
of aesthetics develops skills for the critical appreciation and analysis of art, culture and nature.

・Change is a conversion, transformation or movement from one form, state or value to another. Inquiry into
the concept of change involves understanding and evaluating causes, processes and consequences.

・Communication is the exchange or transfer of signals, facts, ideas and symbols. It requires a sender, a
message and an intended receiver. Communication involves the activity of conveying information or
meaning. Effective communication requires a common language (which may be written, spoken or
non-verbal).

・Communities are groups that exist in proximity defined by space, time or relationship. Communities
include, for example, groups of people sharing particular characteristics, beliefs or values as well as groups
of interdependent organisms living together in a specific habitat.

・Connections are links, bonds and relationships among people, objects, organisms or ideas.

・Creativity is the process of generating novel ideas and considering existing ideas from new perspectives.
Creativity includes the ability to recognize the value of ideas when developing innovative responses to
problems; it may be evident in process as well as outcomes, products or solutions.

・Culture encompasses a range of learned and shared beliefs, values, interests, attitudes, products, ways of
knowing and patterns of behavior created by human communities. The concept of culture is dynamic and
organic.

・Development is the act or process of growth, progress or evolution, sometimes through iterative
improvements.

・Form is the shape and underlying structure of an entity or piece of work, including its organization,
essential nature and external appearance.

・Global interactions, as a concept, focuses on the connections among individuals and communities, as well
as their relationships with built and natural environments, from the perspective of the world as a whole.

・Identity is the state or fact of being the same. It refers to the particular features that define individuals,
groups, things, eras, places, symbols and styles. Identity can be observed, or it can be constructed, asserted
and shaped by external and internal influences.

・Logic is a method of reasoning and a system of principles used to build arguments and reach conclusions.

・Perspective is the position from which we observe situations, objects, facts, ideas and opinions.
Perspective may be associated with individuals, groups, cultures or disciplines. Different perspectives often
lead to multiple representations and interpretations.

・Relationships are the connections and associations between properties, objects, people and ideas—including

18
the human community’s connections with the world in which we live. Any change in relationship brings
consequences—some of which may occur on a small scale, while others may be far reaching, affecting large
networks and systems such as human societies and the planetary ecosystem.

・Systems are sets of interacting or interdependent components. Systems provide structure and order in
human, natural and built environments. Systems can be static or dynamic, simple or complex.

・The intrinsically linked concept of time, space and place refers to the absolute or relative position of
people, objects and ideas. Time, place and space focuses on how we construct and use our understanding of
location (where and when).
