Knowledge & technology mini-lessons

The technology mini-lessons invite students to apply TOK concepts to recent real-world situations, help them to curate examples for the assessment tasks, and support the development of authentic critical thinking across the whole DP.

The mini-lessons are updated every month, so they augment the BQ and Classic full-length lessons brilliantly, enabling you to bring the very latest events and issues into your classroom, and go way beyond the headlines.

Join us to access the mini-lessons!

Members of the site receive 20 TOK mini-lessons every month, which can be used by any teacher to develop authentic critical thinking, link their lessons to contemporary global events, and use TOK to explore critical issues related to their subject. Join us in seconds here!

In the meantime, please help yourself to our latest mini-lessons (in the padlet below), which demonstrate how we help learners to go beyond the headlines, and develop a deep understanding of what’s going on the contemporary real-world.
