Theory of Knowledge: History and TOK

Theory of Knowledge: History and TOK

(0)
This differs from my other History and TOK lesson in that this is more TOK then History, meaning that I wrote it for my TOK class rather than my History class. The tasks include an analysis of Ants v Termites and whether it should be considered history, some reflection tasks to consider a students own history, historigraphy, and a consideration of what is History. Nonetheless, it contains twelve scaffolded and structured tasks for students to complete. I would say there is probably about 4 hours work here all together. This lesson is easily editable and adaptable, but is also ready to go as soon as it is downloaded. It is suitable for in class, online or blended learning.
