Perceptions of the IB Diploma Programme in Australasian Universities
Project Director: Dr Hamish Coates
The International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO) is interested in universities’ perceptions of the IB taken by increasing numbers of Years 11 and 12 students. IBO engaged ACER to research this area of higher education. A survey of senior university administrators in Australia and New Zealand was conducted in late 2006, with follow-up interviews in early 2007. A report submitted to the IBO was recently published:
