Mrs. Friedberg of FPC and Mrs. Becht of LPA show off their AICE Marine Science practice renderings of sharks, part of the AICE training for teachers. AICE stands for Advanced International Certificate of Education, a rigorous series of courses from Cambridge University in England. Students taking and successfully passing seven AICE examinations in the core areas of Mathematics/Science, Languages, and Arts/Humanities are eligible to earn the Cambridge AICE diploma.
For many teachers across schools in the district, training occurred over the summer as well as this fall. The recent training of AICE in English Literature, Marine Science, as well as Art & Design, took place in Palm Beach Gardens and gave teachers tangible tools, assessment preparation, and real-world practice with course content, activities, and expected outcomes. Teachers worked through generating student learning checklists, assessing previous samples, and aligning course objective to ready students for their spring AICE examinations.
