IB Theory of Knowledge

Course Fee: Approximately $50

The TOK course provides students with an opportunity to explore and reflect on the nature of knowledge and the knower and the process of knowing. It is a core element of the IB program and fosters the IB Learner Profile. In TOK, students reflect on the knowledge, perspectives and opinions that they have built up from their years of academic studies and their lives outside the classroom. The course is intended to be challenging and thought-provoking—as well as empowering—for students.

TOK does not have a seated exam, but students are required to engage in an internally moderated exhibition and an externally moderated essay.
