]]> 2025-08-15 07:35:56 UTC https://padlet.com/theory_of_knowledge/liqj3vgeqzc2y2yw/wish/3544075953 USING TOK VIA TED theory_of_knowledge https://padlet.com/theory_of_knowledge/liqj3vgeqzc2y2yw/wish/3544075961 TED is a brilliant resource for anyone delivering the TOK course, introducing students to a range of life-changing ideas, and helping them to understand the different aspects of the course.


Students can not only use the talks to understand the TOK course - and the wider DP - in more depth and detail, but also draw on their discussions to construct and support their essay and exhibition arguments.


Use the resource as a way of augmenting and enriching your BQ or Classic course, and share it with all the teachers in your school to integrate TOK with the rest of the DP, and turn your learning institution into a hub of authentic critical thinking.


The unpacking documents offer an introduction to each speaker, questions that link their talk to the TOK course, and suggested answers. We've also indicated ideas for further research.
