The Theory of Knowledge—a core element of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme—is a course in epistemology and practical philosophy. By examining short texts (including but not limited to local and world issues, philosophy, history and its perspectives, and scientific research) and the knowledge issues they contain and inspire, you will gain the skills necessary to analyze knowledge claims, their underlying assumptions, and their implications.

A Very Good Place To Start
Greetings Knowers and happy summer. When we were last together, the big ideas were flying fast and furious, as were the hugs and roses.

This writing is due Friday 22 June at noon (in your time zone).
