Tok presentation

[Nikhil Sareen]

Love to all IB students 

I am currently in first IB year, preparing for my ToK presentation.

Any interesting articles, topics or any tips that would help me.

p.s I would be very interested in viewing your presentation as an example. 

Help a brother out!

my exams start in 21 days, and after I have my presentation.

basically a month but I want to get it done asap

 I'm sure I could return the favour 

thanks a lot

I don't have my presentation video, but a great way to have a good presentation is by picking a current controversial topic, because you can get really into it.

Maybe do something like:

• Abortion
• Capital Punishment
• Euthanasia
• Religion
• Global Warming
• Immigration

The list goes on. You can have fun with this if you let yourself.

See case studies with discussion and sample KQ (Knowledge Questions) for the year 2016.

Importance of KQ and RLS :

KQ( Knowledge Question): The Soul of the Presentation

·      The KQ or the knowledge question earlier referred by IB as KI (Knowledge Issue) is the search tool to build the body of your TOK Presentation. The KQs are open ended and incisive, asking for thoughtful and critical examination of the topic.

·      Develop the TOK Presentation by connecting and weaving the threads of understanding the answers to your KQs.

·      A typical KQ explores a particular topic /theme in depth or combines examining any particular AOK with a WOK tool. We have formulated sample KQs for the TOK Presentations for you to work on.

RLS (Real Life Situation): The essential for TOK Presentation

Examples and Case Studies...

·      RLS or simply put incidents from reality serve as examples for explaining and justifying our claims/counterclaims in the TOK Presentation. They serve as anecdotal evidence for our arguments.

·      RLS also double up as the case studies for TOK Presentation topics. RLS need not be contentious in nature. Good choices of RLS involve different viewpoints and are significant to us as civilization. These will prompt and invoke interesting debate and discussion.

·      The RLS used in the TOK Presentation are normally picked from the current events of your IB Diploma years. The more we can connect the AOK and WOK to the RLS, the better it is!

 

Hope this helps.

Best.
