Buy the complete textbook here (Available August, 2020) You will see that all four elements of the knowledge framework are consistently addressed in each lesson, but questions of ethics are also specialized in a standalone lesson at the end of the chapter (Compos Mentis). It also builds several key thinking skills, most importantly, analogical reasoning and what-if thought experiments. The chapter will guide students in a journey of self-reflection through the lens of TOK concepts: how can they know if their knowledge is biased? Is there anything they can do about it? This chapter includes 10 lessons focused on how bias (one of our overarching concepts) manifests itself in the knowledge that we acquire in our everyday lives.
The key questions targeted in Chapter 3 (Bias in personal knowledge) are simple but at the same time profound: Like all themantic materials, this eBook chapter “Bias in Personal Knowledge” from our new TOK textbook is based on addressing real world problems and issues that are meaningful and relevant for students.
Alexey Popov and the ThemEd team have been working hard on our new TOK textbook, “TOK: A Student’s Guide.” The entire third chapter, “Bias in Personal Knowledge” is now available for free on our website.
