  5. What influenced MYP? The educational discourse in our nation has been limited to the following statement: "Test scores are too low.  Make them go up.” "If learners are not involved in their learning, they do not learn". "the highest quality teaching and learning comes when we have the greatest autonomy for the teacher and the learner". Do we really want our schools to resemble test-preparation cram courses?
