l> Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Hi. I was wondering if using the example of euclidean and non-euclidean geometry in my TOK essay is a good idea? Because my classmate said that it has become almost like a cliche. What do you think? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's completely alright to use non-euclidean geometry as an example, as long as you also have other examples that are more personal, such that your essay has some uniqueness in it (which is very important for a good TOK essay). 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrashmaster Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 I have read that cliche examples are bad in ToK essays, though I haven't heard this specific example enough to call it cliche (doesn't mean a ToK examiner wouldn't think so though). I'd say go with it if it is very clearly linked to what you're trying to say. If it's a stretch, think of something else. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
