Qualitative and quantitative research methods are detailed, along with guidelines for the IB internal assessment.

IB CAS ideas, links to Theory of Knowledge, and approaches to teaching and learning are woven into each section. Kali the tiger is pictured on the back of the book and perhaps your class will do a CAS project about her situation!
