These natural sciences mini-lessons are designed for senior students (aged 17-18) looking to hone their authentic critical thinking (ACT), link their subject knowledge to the real-world, and strengthen their university application profile.
They enable all your students to share the cognitive benefits of TOK without following the IB pathway. For definitions on subject areas, see this page.
