The 5 Big Questions form the backbone of how we deliver the TOK course at theoryofknowledge.net.

Rather than working through the course topic by topic, we organise it around five fundamental questions about the nature of knowledge, each one building on the last.

Together they take students on a journey from the foundations of what knowledge actually is, through to the values, perspectives, and processes that shape how we produce and use it.

The Classic approach organises the TOK course around its core components as set out by the IB: the core theme of knowledge and the knower, the five optional themes, and the five areas of knowledge.

It is a systematic and comprehensive way of working through the course, ensuring that students develop a thorough understanding of each component and the connections between them.

Theory of Knowledge asks students to step back from their individual subjects and reflect on a more fundamental question: how do we actually know what we think we know?

It is one of the most relevant and empowering courses a young person can take, developing the kind of clear, honest, independent thinking that serves them long after the IB is over.
