Our goal


Examine our knowledge
based on the Theory of
Knowledge ‘Circle of
Knowing’
The Persistence of Memory, Salvador Dali, 1931




The key question
What does this picture tell us?
How do we know that a
 given assertion is true, or
 a given judgment, well
 grounded?
              • Allegory of the cave
The Earth is the centre of the
 Universe!
Sensible and responsible
 women do not want to vote.
640kb (kilobytes) ought to be
 enough for anybody
It is impossible to travel faster
 than the speed of light
Blog entries
 You must write one entry
  about each one of the ways
  of knowing

 You must also do one for
  the six areas of knowledge

 You will need to write at
  least three before the first
  report card (end of October
  date TBD)
Comments

 You need to be following our class blog

  your thought and think more about their own
Knowledge Portfolio
                  This will be something that you
                   will be gathering mostly from our
                   ToK Days

                  Can add material from other
                   sources

                  The idea is to collect
                   ‘information’ that you find
                   interesting and useful
                       Vocabulary
