As we are more close to our practicum, we are more focused on our curriculum and lesson plans in IB. In this seminar, I further explored the key concept of the statement of inquiry which is the heart of the IB’s inquiry. How I can make the statement of inquiry for my unit plans? Where should I start? I find how statement of inquiry is shaped by a key concept that I have started my ideas with it. Identity and transformation has been always my interest. By considering the fact that this key concept is connected to another concept which may have other ideas or concept in itself, I thought about related concepts and finally the context in which the concept and related concept find meaning.
Regarding my key concept as the identity, I consider the global contexts. identities and relationships are my inquiries in this global context and I developed my statement of inquiry by considering that “how identities are transformed in different contexts or relationships” How can I teach identities and relationships in IB?. I start my journey from here.
