The TOK exhibition is an internal assessment. You choose a prompt and connect three objects to it, then explain each link in a commentary of up to 950 words.
A practical guide to the Theory of Knowledge exhibition: three objects, one prompt and a focused commentary.
The TOK exhibition is an internal assessment. You choose a prompt and connect three objects to it, then explain each link in a commentary of up to 950 words.
The point is to show how TOK ideas appear in the real world, not to display impressive items.
Choose objects that connect clearly to the prompt and to a real context. Each object should do a different job, so the three together give you more than one angle.
Typical mistakes include writing about the prompt without referring to the objects, choosing objects with no real-world context and treating the commentary as a description. Another is going over the word limit of 950 words.
A tutor can read your plan with you and ask the questions an examiner would ask.
Three, each connected to the same prompt.
Up to 950 words.
It is internally assessed by your teacher and moderated by the IB.
