Theory of Knowledge (ToK)
Theory of knowledge is a course designed to encourage each student to reflect on the nature of knowledge by critically examining different ways of knowing (perception, emotion, language and reason) and different kinds of knowledge (scientific, artistic, mathematical and historical)
![Page 16: Ib task force report for students](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052601/559381ec1a28ab16218b4747/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Creativity, Action, Service (CAS)
Creativity, action, service requires that students actively learn from the experience of doing real tasks beyond the classroom. Students can combine all three components or do activities related to each one of them separately.

23
Internal assessment
In nearly all subjects at least some of the assessment is carried out internally by teachers, who mark individual pieces of work produced as part of a course of study. Examples include oral exercises in language subjects, projects, student portfolios, class presentations, practical laboratory work, mathematical investigations and artistic performances.
![Page 24: Ib task force report for students](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052601/559381ec1a28ab16218b4747/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
External assessment
Some assessment tasks are conducted and overseen by teachers without the restrictions of examination conditions, but are then marked externally by examiners. Examples include world literature assignments for language A1, written tasks for language A2, essays for theory of knowledge and extended essays.
Because of the greater degree of objectivity and reliability provided by the standard examination environment, externally marked examinations form the greatest share of the assessment for each subject.

Student comments:
“Lo que me pareció más interesante fue la
relación directa entre lo que estudiábamos en
clase y las cosas que pasan en el mundo.
Estudiar economía en el Programa del Diploma
me permitió entender el significado de
conceptos que a menudo aparecen en la prensa,
pero a los que generalmente no prestamos
atención o que no comprendemos.”
