Take the Knowledge and Run
Time to test your TOK legs. As we did in class today, I want you to generate a knowledge question from some other area of your life. Choose a moment of knowledge from your day, share it, and then extract a knowledge question. Remember that your KQ should be an open question, not limited to the moment from which it derives, and must be about knowledge. Before you post, ask yourself: does answering this question lead to an investigation of the nature of knowledge? You may find it helpful to refer to one or more Ways of Knowing and/or Areas of Knowledge. Please share your work by 9:30 Wednesday evening.
