Arabic, Quranic & Islamic Studies
How does Islamic education connect with the IB program at TA?
IB emphasizes inquiry-based learning, where students actively engage in asking questions, conducting research, and exploring topics in depth. Islamic education can incorporate this approach by encouraging students to inquire about Islamic history, ethics, and values.
IB aims to develop internationally minded students with a strong awareness of global issues. Islamic education can align with this by integrating global perspectives within the context of Islamic teachings, fostering an understanding of the interconnectedness of the world.
The IB program encourages students to consider ethical implications in their studies. Islamic education, rooted in ethical principles, can reinforce the importance of ethical behavior, social justice, and responsibility based on Islamic teachings.
Both IB and Islamic education aim to instill a love for learning and the skills needed for lifelong learning. Islamic education can emphasize the concept of seeking knowledge as a lifelong pursuit, aligning with the IB goal of developing learners who are curious and open-minded.
