COYSTHFC Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Meh. I found it okay. Personally find the TOK essay as a hassle. Too many things going on and it just adds to the pile really. However, there are some concepts within TOK that I find interesting. Mostly anything TOK related to history because history is my favorite subject. Really just matters on your perspective and what lenses you look at the subject through...(see what I just did there)....Cheers. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
In terminal ass as mint Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 It's supposed to teach you how we find new knowledge and when to trust it. If you do it right it is a good skill for university. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
udawn Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Eventhough I really dislike how we have to do so much work for it (for less than 3 points!!), I think its really interesting how there are actually ways and areas of knowing to which we use to gain knowledge, and its really interesting how this is actually used In real life!

I agree with you, however I wouldn't say 3 points is that low. After all, you only do the TOK essay and presentation once, whereas in other subjects you need to do IAs AND the exams (just to put it in perspective). I would say those 3 points can make a difference 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

imosz Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I think it really depends on your teacher :/ 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that a teacher which only teaches TOK as a necessity of the IB (it is but the point is that it is supposed to help you) will find that students are less engaged in their work 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
