Author Description

Developed in collaboration with the International Baccalaureate Organization, Oxford's Course Companions provide extra support for students taking IB Diploma Program courses. They present a whole-course approach with a wide range of resources, and encourage a deep understanding of each subject by making connections to wider issues and providing opportunities for critical thinking. With coverage of the 2007 course outline, these course companions have been written by a principal examiner for the IB Diploma and have been extensively reviewed by teachers, consultants and the IBO. These books contain a unique approach, integrating theory of knowledge and internationalism throughout. Lively and accessible, activities and features are provided for learning and wider discussion around core and wider issues, and include much needed guidance on study and writing skills. Also included are exam and Extended Essay advice.
