TOK mini-lessons

The TOK mini-lessons can be used equally effectively by TOK and non-TOK teachers to develop authentic critical thinking, integrate the curriculum, and link learning to the real-world.

Each lesson invites students to offer their ideas about the world, test them via media sources and peer discussion, and confront – rather than confirm – their biases and assumptions about the world.

Access the TOK mini-lessons & knowledge journeys

TOK teachers can access our mini-lessons via the buttons below. Non-TOK teachers may find it easier to access the lessons via the DP Integration Tool, and teachers involved in a different educational programme (such as

AP or A-Levels) can use our adapted versions of the mini-lessons here. Check back regularly, as we add 15 new mini-lessons and knowledge journeys every month.

Help your learners to exit their echo chambers!

Our online and in-person workshops offer the usual support for students writing the essay and exhibition, and TOK departments designing great courses.

But our training sessions go much further than this: by focusing on authentic critical thinking, they demonstrate how to help learners confront, rather than confirm, their biases and assumptions, and exit their echo chambers. This makes them accessible and relevant for all teachers, whatever their subject or programme. Read more here.
