Mainland High School – Cambridge Aice Global Perspectives - As Level

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Students will broaden their outlook through the critical analysis of - and reflection on - issues of global significance. The course is based on skills rather than on specific content. Learners develop research, thinking, reasoning and communication skills by following an approach to analyzing and evaluating arguments and perspectives called the Critical Path. Collaborative skills are enhanced through participation in a team project. The skills gained through study of AS Global Perspectives and Research enable students to meet the demands of twenty-first century learning and to make a successful transition to study in higher education. As part of the course, learners write a research report on a research question of their own choice and a collaborative team project. Students will take the AS Level examination.
