About the workshop

What skills positively influence and support a student's approach to life-long learning? All IB programmes develop the approaches to learning (ATL) skill categories of communication, social, self-management, research and thinking.

  • Develop a deeper understanding of ATL as a way for students to acquire and use skills developed over time in order to access learning.
