- 8. What does this mean forsupervisors? For one semester, things
are going to get a bit hairy (Sorry) Currently, we still have
mostly the same schedule as last year for the senior class:EE
Timeline for 2012-13 (about 30 students) But heres the problem We

beginning their EE process right now also. This is for the benefit

addressed so we get to buc up and engage in this learning

the IB Coordinators job) The EE isnt just an additional IB
assignment; its at the center of what IB stands for how does your
course fit in? How do you see your mentees paper fitting in his/her
overall IB experience? IB Expo EE student showcase
