TOK Exhibition

Theory of knowledge (TOK) plays a special role in the International Baccalaureate® (IB) Diploma Program (DP), by providing an opportunity for students to reflect on the nature of knowledge, and on how we know what we claim to know.

It is one of the components of the DP core and is mandatory for all students. The TOK requirement is central to the educational philosophy of the DP.

The exhibition is an essential part of the TOK course, and it provides an opportunity for our students to showcase their understanding of TOK concepts. We believe that the exhibition will be an enriching experience for everyone in our community, and we encourage everyone to attend.

TOK Inquiry

  We were given the topic of electronic cigarettes (also known as vaping) and whether or not they are bad for our health in our most recent TOK lesson. When a liquid is heated in an e-cigarette, it turns into vapors or, more precisely, aerosols that the user can inhale (thus "vaping"). These appliances heat chemicals like nicotine, marijuana, various flavorings, or other potentially hazardous compounds. Nicotine is habit-forming. While less dangerous than smoking, vaping is still not secure. You inhale an aerosol produced by heating nicotine (extracted from tobacco), flavorings, and other compounds in e-cigarettes. There are 7,000 compounds in regular tobacco cigarettes, many of which are harmful.  There is obviously cause for concern given the unfortunate and distressing examples of serious lung illness. Other negative health impacts include several of the following: Nicotine is highly addictive and can affect the developing brain, potentially harming teens and young adults....

Visit to EMK Center: A Hands-On Adventure in Technology and Innovation

Students from IB DP Year 2 and WACE 11 had an exciting and educational visit to the EMK Center, diving into the world of technology through interactive activities. The day began with a fun introduction to Makey Makey, where students turned everyday objects like paper and pencil into touchpads, blending creativity with basic electronics. They then engaged in a problem-solving session, learning the importance of asking the right questions before diving into solutions. Next, the students experienced the thrill of coding with a drone flying activity, where they controlled mini drones using tools similar to Scratch. Additionally, they got hands-on experience with SketchUp software, creating 3D models of houses, which helped them understand the basics of design and architecture. A key highlight of the visit was exploring Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), where students immersed themselves in virtual environments and learned about the practical uses of these cutting-edge techno...
