A collage of various images including theory of knowledge, a person with a rosary, ancient rock art, a person working on a computer, a microscope, a digital globe, a crowd of people, emojis showing different emotions, cultural performers in a parade, and a blackboard with mathematical equations, with the text "Are you CERTAIN ABOUT EVERYTHING?" overlaid in the center.

Theory of knowledge (TOK), a unique study of epistemology in the IB Diploma Programme, opens up a wide window of reflection on the nature of the knowledge you have constructed as a knower and the process of knowing. You get to critically reflect on the reliability of information treated as knowledge through the twelve Theory of knowledge (TOK) concepts.

The three interconnected Theory of knowledge (TOK) parts core, the optional themes, and the areas of knowledge (AOKs)- are explored through the open, generic, and contestable knowledge questions, which are organized in a knowledge framework having four elements as key players in exploring, comparing, and connecting the AOKs and optional themes.

The new Theory of Knowledge (TOK) curriculum, TOK 2022 has the externally assessed task, the Theory of Knowledge (TOK) essay worth 67%, and the internally assessed new task, the Theory of knowledge (TOK) exhibition worth 33% of the grades. While the Theory of knowledge (TOK) essay connects the prescribed title to the relevant AOKs, the Theory of knowledge (TOK) exhibition explores how the Theory of knowledge (TOK) manifests in the real world through specific real-life objects of personal importance with an IA prompt within one of the Theory of knowledge (TOK) themes.
