QUESTION 4

4. The traditional TOK diagram indicates four ways of knowing 4. The traditional TOK diagram indicates four ways of knowing. Propose the inclusion of a fifth way of knowing selected from intuition, memory or imagination, and explore the knowledge issues it may raise in two areas of knowledge. I really like this Essay title in light of the new changes coming to TOK in 2015. I think Faith will come up and make a good candidate. The interpretation of this as a WoK'ing will lead students to naturally cover a more in depth review of what is taken on faith in all AoK's rather than a shallow look at only metaphysical issues.   Given that most of our students are EAL learners, this title is not very pragmatic. I like this title, too. For my students to write well on it, however, I think they'd need some direct introduction to the other suggested ways of knowing -- not as extensive as the traditional 4, perhaps, but something... not simply turning them loose. As I mentioned in another thread, I've been including a look at intuition from a cognitive neuroscience perspective for a few years anyway. I predict this will be a popular choice. as a comment to essay title No. 4 I'd say that - as usual - the essay should tackle 'to what extent' the statement is true. The question is now: should students analyze this statement in a few areas of knowledge of their choice? I'd say so. I also agree with a previous thread as I'd suggest that one main knowledge issue to address would be: what constitutes evidence? (again, with reference to different AOK's and WOK's).

4. The traditional TOK diagram indicates four ways of knowing 4. The traditional TOK diagram indicates four ways of knowing. Propose the inclusion of a fifth way of knowing selected from intuition, memory or imagination, and explore the knowledge issues it may raise in two areas of knowledge. What are the Areas of Knowledge you would associate with this question? How? look at the ways in which disagreement DOES NOT aid in the pursuit of knowledge as a counter-claim? Or how agreement can? Since the title asks about how disagreement might aidin the pursuit, it seems that that should remain the focus; but it makes perfect sense to add some counter-examples, acknowledging ways in which disagreement might impede the pursuit of knowledge. I would just warn against letting this angle become the focus. What are the Ways of Knowing that you would associate with this question? How?
