Natural Sciences
The natural sciences aim to explore the natural world around us and how it works through a systematic process of observation, evidence, and imagination used in scientific models, resulting to generalized assertions (scientific claims) based on predictions. Throughout the discourse of TOK, knowledge production and development in natural sciences would be unpacked through the understanding its scope and nature, perspectives and context, methods and tools, and ethical stance involved-the 4 elements of the knowledge framework of the new theory of knowledge curriculum, TOK 2022.
Below is the table of contents, which is just the entry ticket to investigation into a bunch of complex discussions involved in Natural Sciencees as an Area of Knowledge (AOK) in TOK, which students will get to argue through Real life situations (RLS), helping them to look at TOK essays with more refined thinking. Teachers would love to get engaged with the students in classroom activities suggested.
