The International Schools Journal Compendium: International Baccalaureate: Pioneering in Education v. IV

For more than 20 years the International Schools Journal has been a unique source of articles concerning virtually every aspect of international education. This ISJ Compendium is the fourth of a series of books containing reprints of articles grouped according to a particular theme.
The first volume in the series was devoted to the important area of ESL, bilingual education and related topics. The second concerned itself with culture, or more particularly transculture and multicultures, especially as they are experienced in international school communities. The third volume led readers naturally into the international classroom - the heart and soul of school life.
This fourth volume traces the early days of the International Baccalaureate (IB) and the goal to create, develop and implement a truly international curriculum and qualification. Dr Ian Hill, Deputy Director General of the IB, has been contributing this unique story to the ISJ since 2001. For the first time, his history of the IB and its importance in the field of international education is available in one volume.
