November 2020 Tok Essay Titles:- Please see below the Theory of Knowledge prescribed Essay titles for the November 2020 session. Students are expected to write not more than 1600 words on one of the six prescribed TOK essay titles.
We have a ready analysis of the topics to help students score the maximum mark band as per essay assessment criteria. Mr Valecha has been a TOK instructor since 2013 and his sessions can be booked over www.sev7n.co.in under the contact section.
Each essay title is unique in itself and requires the epistemological approach keeping in mind the knowledge framework. We prefer guiding students through the essay using various real-life examples that help in forming the claims and subsequent counterclaims. However, it is essential to broaden up the thinking skill by looking at the topic not just from a mere one real-life example but the knowledge behind it. The essay is required to be weaved through the areas of knowledge using the ways of knowing.
