Learn how to design International Baccalaureate (IB) assessments that align with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Covers phenomenon-based learning, three-dimensional assessment, and IB criteria mapping.
Learn how to design International Baccalaureate assessments that align with Next Generation Science Standards. This guide covers phenomenon-based learning, three-dimensional assessment, and IB criteria mapping.
NGSS and IB MYP share a focus on inquiry-based, conceptual learning. Aligning them creates assessments that meet both frameworks simultaneously.
Integrate Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs), Crosscutting Concepts (CCCs), and Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCIs) into IB criterion rubrics.
Criterion A (Knowing and understanding) maps to DCIs, Criterion B (Inquiring and designing) maps to SEPs, Criterion C (Processing and evaluating) maps to CCCs.
Real-world phenomena as assessment anchors, with GRASP task design for authentic IB performance tasks.
