All You Need to Know about TOK Essay

Updated: Feb 18

TOK Essay is an important part of the IB syllabus. Every student is required to write a TOK essay as per the guidelines of the institute.


TOK essay is the theory of knowledge. As the name suggests, it wants you to explain the knowledge that you claim to know. Explain the facts, the theory, and everything else that has led you to your knowledge of a particular field or subject.



How to Get Started for TOK Essay:


1. Start Today: it is advised to students to start their TOK essay plan as soon as they can as it takes time to draft and finalize the essay. If you have been procrastinating for a long time then it is time to pull up your socks and start working towards it.


2. Introduction: Give your TOK essay an introduction that is catchy and your reader gets hooked to it. It is very important to justify your introduction as it is the introduction that gives the idea to your readers what they are going to read in the remaining paragraphs.


3. Essay Plan is Important: your essay plan should be clear in your mind- the context of the essay, the arguments, and the counterarguments that you will use. Always try to take examples from real-life incidents to justify your points- this way the reader will know that you have researched well for your topic and you know what exactly is in your mind.


4. Justify Your Thoughts: when writing a TOK essay, never hesitate to speak your mind! Make full justice to your thoughts, ideas, and ideology. Try to justify your arguments, explain theories if needed, your philosophy, and how it settled you at the conclusion in question.


5. consider Counterarguments: when you explain your point, make sure to use counterarguments and see how the issue can be considered from another point of view. Make your readers understand your points using other arguments. But remember to evaluate your counterarguments rather than just mention them. It will give your readers a clear picture of what you think and consider to be true.
