BHP Team
The International Baccalaureate (IB) and BHP share a common focus on student inquiry and interdisciplinary learning. Several IB schools from around the world have adopted the Big History Project course and found it to be a natural fit within the IB framework. To make it even easier for IB schools to adopt BHP, the two organizations have established a formal partnership aimed at sharing best practices and integrating resources. If you’re already teaching in an IB school, check out BHP’s curriculum, professional development, and BHP Teacher Community offerings. If you’re already teaching BHP and want to expand the approach across the curriculum, the IB is a natural next step.
