Claims and Counterclaims in ToK presentation

Recommended Posts

Helloooo.

So, i'm giving my final ToK presentation next Thursday and I'm stuck on my presentation. I'm doing it on euthanasia and my KQ is 'what are the ethical implications when euthanasia is being considered?' I have 2 real life situations but not I'm quite unsure of where to go. I know I'm supposed to give claims and counterclaims for each of my AoK/WoK but I'm not sure how exactly to do that? Can someone give me some clarification or an example of a good claim and counter claim in regards to my KQ or at least tell me what to do? My WoK are reason and emotion.

 

Thankssss

Hate to sound harsh but I don't really think this is a great topic.. like your KQ is not a KQ and you should generally avoid ethical dilemma's because they tend to steer people down the wrong path away from "how we know what we know" into a "is it right or wrong?" area.

 

your goal with a TOK presentation is to talk about how we know something so if you're determined to go with euthanasia as your topic (which i wouldn't recommend), I would suggest your KQ being something like "how do we know if a person can chose euthanasia" and from there have ethics, RKS, maybe human sciences as your AOK and go from there
