International Education (IB)

When you need to locate articles about a specific topic for your assessment tasks, we suggest that you search within the databases as they index the contents of thousands of journals.

Try your search strategies in some of the databases we recommend for IB Diploma students 

The library subscribes to a large number of journals in all areas of education. Journals titles may be aligned with different information needs such as research, study or professional development. 

For some topics, be prepared to think laterally and consider general education journals in the areas of cognition, teaching methods, learning styles and educational psychology.
