ckj1026 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Hi. I am currently working on my TOK essay. I chose the first title, "In gaining knowledge, each area of knowledge uses a network of ways of knowing.†Discuss this statement with reference to two areas of knowledge." I am not sure about the phrase "gaining knowledge". Does it mean personal knowledge or universal knowledge? Can I talk about both? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yugalarex Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Sorry for forum promotion but: http://www.ibsurvival.com/topic/36031-prescribed-titles-2016-discussion/ Personal knowledge and shared knowledge aren't mutually exclusive. I'm doing another title so I'll try explain in terms of that. "The knower's perspective is essential in the pursuit of knowledge", to me this means that shared knowledge is informed by personal knowledge. You could possibly talk about how knowledge is gained through personal understanding informing personal knowledge which then becomes shared knowledge.
