Fostering TOK Connections To Geography
Geography’s unique blend of natural and human sciences provides rich opportunities to connect with the IB’s Theory of Knowledge (TOK). Our tutors help students explore knowledge questions such as:
- How do maps reflect reality, and what hidden messages might they convey?
- To what extent are the methods of human sciences truly scientific?
- How does the study of geography challenge students to evaluate diverse perspectives?
By integrating TOK into our geography tutoring, we help students develop a deeper understanding of the subject and its broader implications.
