MYP: Conceptual understanding overview
The MYP is a conceptually-driven curriculum framework. This video provides a brief overview of what it means when a unit is developed in order to help students understand a specific conceptual idea.

For guidance about other elements of the MYP unit planning, check out the other videos in this "IB in (about) 3" series! Enjoy!

You may also be interested in checking out these two Q&A documents (teachers submit specific questions about MYP unit planning and I provide brief answers based on 16 years of involvement with the MYP as an MYP Coordinator (12 yrs), BQC senior reviewer, MYP workshop developer/leader, MYP site visitor, TSM developer and Independent MYP consultant.)
