Welcome to Cambridge IGCSE Global Perspectives

Welcome to Cambridge IGCSE Global Perspectives (0457) and to this guide to teaching and assessing the Group Project. Our intention in this guide is to answer any questions you may have about the Group Project element of the Cambridge IGCSE Global Perspectives course and also provide an example of a Group Project. In Section A we look at how the Group Project fits into the Global Perspectives course, its structure and how you, as teachers and facilitators, might approach developing the skills your students need to complete their Group Project successfully and thereby achieve the learning outcomes. In Section B we look more closely at the assessment criteria and what you need to consider when assessing and submitting work for moderation. Also included within this section are forms which will assist with undertaking individual and group assessment. In Section C you will find a sample Group Project for further guidance on how the various Group Project elements fit together.
