BQ3 (Spin) asks, How is our understanding impacted by the way knowledge is communicated? It invites students to think about the way our knowledge of the world is impacted by the way ideas are consciously and unconsciously ‘spun’.
The classroom-ready lessons have been completely updated for the 2024-25 academic year, with new learning activities, media source, thinkers, and hundreds of suggestions for using AI-tools to facilitate learning. It is, by far, our best ever resource for delivering the TOK course!

Help your learners to exit their echo chambers!

This makes them accessible and relevant for all teachers, whatever their subject or programme. Read more here.
