Oxford IB Diploma Programme: Psychology Course Companion Bewertungen

I was very fond of the earlier edition of the curriculum book through Oxford and have it with me all the time. I was very excited to see there was an updated version to go with the new curriculum. The book is very well presented in the new format and seems to be very straight forward with the material and the expectations held by IB. I like how it is set up and think it will make covering the material much more organized for both the teacher and the students. * Kimberly Drugan, Psychology Teacher, Firestone Community Learning Center, Ohio, USA *
