Presentation Transcript

  1. Mock TOK Presentations

  2. Theory of Knowledge - Nutshell • As TOK students, you will be able to look at the process of knowing, instead of merely acquiring new knowledge as you do in your other classes. • TOK is supposed to give you the opportunity to reflect on the ‘bigger’ questions of knowing, such as “How do I know?” and “What counts as knowledge?” and “What is the value of knowledge?” • It is interdisciplinary, meaning you should be able to make bridges between TOK and your other classes.

  3. ToK Presentation- Nutshell • ToK Presentations should be about a knowledge issues present in real-life situations (such as whether it is ethical to conceive a child to be an organ donor for its sibling). • These real life situations can be limited to your immediate surroundings (like school, home life, or community) or can be wider in scope (national, international, or global). • Presenters should be able to exhibit a personal connection or some sort of personal involvement in the situation.

  4. The Expectations • Mock Presentations should be about knowledge issues present in classic fairy tales. • Examples: • Is there legitimate evidence to support that Cinderella and Prince Charming lived happily ever after? • To what extent was Belle exhibiting Stockholm Syndrome when she fell in love with the Beast? (No, you can’t use these anymore.)

  5. The Details • Choice of working individually, in pairs, or in groups of three. • The length of your presentation depends on the number of group members. Plan for roughly 7 minutes speaking time per group member. Everyone in the group must speak. Those working alone may take 10 minutes.

  6. The Details - Continued • You will be given at least 4 class periods to work on the presentation. You will also be going down to watch the seniors deliver their presentations. • You are encouraged to have visual aids such as a PowerPoint presentation or a video. • A bibliography is EXPECTED.

  7. The order of the presentations will be made randomly. The schedule of presentations will be posted on the blog once finalized.
