Cambridge IGCSE Global Perspectives provides opportunities for inquiry into, and reflection on, key global issues from a personal, local/national, and global perspective. Young people globally face unprecedented challenges in an interconnected and information-heavy world, not least in how they will gain a sense of their own active place in the world and cope with changes that will impact on their life chances and life choices. Students will have opportunities to acquire and apply a range of skills, including: gathering, synthesizing, and communicating information; collaborating with others to achieve a common outcome; analyzing and evaluating planning, processes and outcomes; and developing and justifying a line of reasoning. Students will explore stimulating topics that have global significance. Students will assess information critically and explore lines of reasoning. Students will learn to collaborate with others from another culture, community, or country, directing much of their own learning and developing an independence of thought.
