The six Global contexts shown give the MYP its common language for powerful contextual learning so that students will become increasingly aware of the connections between subject content and the real world, rather than considering subjects as isolated areas unrelated to each other and to the world. The MYP presents knowledge as an integrated whole, emphasizing the acquisition of skills and self-awareness of broader and more complex global issues.
