- Today was the third lesson of TOK however this is my first blog entry for this course, Before beginning to discuss what the previous 3 classes consist off (Discussions+Ideas) I would like to first talk about what my take on TOK is.
- Theory Of Knowledge is the subject that teaches us as IB students "How to think". According to the TOK Book "Theory of Knowledge Oxford edition&University Press" To achieve a good grade in TOK it will need and require to show and acquire how good our thinking is and how we are able to thinks. But when it comes to the class the one thing that i learned form the last 3 classes is to always question things, Having Ms. Fatima ask "But how do you know" "Give me an example". I'm not going to lie when i say that it can get frustrating when i need to have an explanation for every statement that is made in class. However class times are fun because of the discussions we have and the group arguments we share.
