IB Theory of Knowledge (TOK) SL Theory of Knowledge Example

The student clearly presents three distinct, real-world objects with appropriate context.

The student's commentary stays focused on the prompt and makes meaningful TOK links throughout.

The student's work is generally well-supported and shows thoughtful evaluation rather than simple description.

A few claims could be framed with more precision and caution.

Some points would benefit from clearer explanation of exactly how the object produces or shapes knowledge.

In places, the analysis could distinguish more sharply between the tool itself, the knowledge claim, and the interpretation of evidence.

One or two sections would be stronger with fuller development and tighter concluding sentences.
