Theory of Knowledge Presentations
On September 27th, 28
th 29
th and 30th the Little Theatre will be filled with Theory of Knowledge students completing their Internal
Assessment presentations for the course. Students will be presenting investigative reports on various topics from the realms of art,
history, natural science, and the human sciences.
TOK students must explore the nature of their selected topic and critically evaluate beliefs and knowledge claims involved. These
findings must be communicated clearly in their presentations.
We cordially invite parents to visit the Little Theatre and witness/discover what these students have accomplished thus far in the
course. Each student will be given a schedule and will present in one of the five sessions – either the morning or the afternoon slot
on one of these dates. Each student will be required to be in attendance in the Little Theatre for the full session for his/her ToK
class so he/she may have an early arrival or late release depending on the schedule. Please be aware that students cannot simply
arrive at the time scheduled for their particular presentation. The schedule and the presentation topics will be posted on the ToK
blog in the next few days. http://tok.ism‐online.org/
We encourage parents to “drop in”. It will give you a real sense of what the Theory of Knowledge course is all about and the
opportunity to see your children in action.
Sincerely,
TOK Teachers
