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.
• Consider contemporary research to apply metacognitive strategies throughout the
learning process, with an emphasis on assessment as learning.
• Design the curriculum to encourage students to build these skills.
• Reflect on how developing affective, cognitive and meta-cognitive skills using a variety of
strategies may increase the capacity of learners to become self-regulated and intrinsically
motivated.
