IB Theory of Knowledge Honors (Year 2)

Required for all IB Diploma candidates

In the Senior Seminar, students will build on their Theory of Knowledge studies from the previous year and focus on completing the required essay with the guidance of their instructor by the end of Semester One. Students will become confident with the TOK essay format, criteria and requirements in preparation for the final TOK assessment, a 1600-word essay in response to one of the six prescribed titles published by the IB in September. The TOK Essay accounts for 67% of their total IB TOK grade.

In completing the essay, students will also further develop their Thinking and Communication Skills in accordance with the IB Approaches to Learning, as well as their Self-Management skills.
