TOK Exhibition Object 1: A Patent Certificate for a New Invention
- Theme: Knowledge and Technology
- Rationale: A patent certificate represents a legal acknowledgment of ownership over a specific invention or idea, granting the inventor exclusive rights to use, produce, and sell the invention for a certain period. This object highlights the legal mechanisms in place to attribute ownership of knowledge in the form of intellectual property, reflecting on the balance between encouraging innovation by rewarding creators and the broader societal interest in accessing and building upon new knowledge.

TOK Exhibition Object 2: An Open Source Software License Agreement
- Theme: Knowledge and Technology
- Rationale: Open source software, governed by licenses that allow users to freely use, modify, and distribute the software, exemplifies a communal approach to knowledge ownership. This licensing model challenges traditional notions of intellectual property by promoting collaboration and sharing, suggesting that knowledge, especially in the form of software code, can be collectively owned and improved upon by a community of users and developers.
Objects in the TOK exhibition serve as tangible manifestations of complex TOK concepts, allowing students to explore and demonstrate their understanding of knowledge in a concrete and relatable context. They act as catalysts for deep reflection, discussion, and analysis, bridging abstract theory with real-world examples and personal experiences. By strategically choosing objects that offer clear relevance and depth, students position themselves to deliver a compelling exhibition that fully addresses the criteria for a 10/10 score.
