As TOK educators, we’ve all stood in front of a new DP cohort at the first-ever TOK lesson, trying to explain to our students what TOK really is.

This introductory handbook will give you and your students a comprehensive understanding of the TOK course, covering everything from the knowledge framework to details of the TOK assessments. Designed to support you as you help students make meaningful progress, this resource includes icebreakers and exciting classroom activity ideas which can be readily used in your classrooms.

  • Overview of the TOK course components 
  • Techniques and ideas to facilitate TOK discussions
  • Strategies to teach the TOK themes and AOKs
