We need to help them build up their learning skills and encourage them in their learning. In many ways approaches to teaching and approaches to learning are intertwined. Both process when done well complement each other.&nbsp; It is worth remembering that the IB is about lifelong learning so teachers are also learners. What we should be aiming to do is provide our students with the skills to not only achieve a good final grade in Diploma Chemistry but also to help them excel at their university studies and in the world of work. Hopefully the days of teachers just lecturing from the front of the classroom and students just memorising information are long gone. The focus should be on encouraging students to think for themselves, to question critically and take responsibility for their own learning.</p><div class="greyBg"><p><strong>Note:&nbsp;</strong> These pages are written for teachers so are &#39;teacher only&#39; pages.
