IBEC-DP-Teaching and Learning "Wk. 5.2 TOK Activity 2 "

 In your teaching you will be expected to explore links between the topics of your subject and TOK. As an example of how you would do this, choose one specific topic from your subject that would allow your students to make links with TOK. Describe, briefly, how you would plan the lesson. This could be in point form and might include your 'good' knowledge question (from 5.1 activity above), the big idea (transfer goal) and/or essential understandings (e.g., content, skills, concepts). (maximum 200 words).

Submit your response in the Discussion 5.2.

Respond to at least 1 other participant's post.

Simulated question:

"How does Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s portrayal of trauma in The Yellow Wallpaper challenge the ways in which personal experiences and mental states shape the construction and sharing of knowledge, and what role does subjectivity play in shaping an individual’s understanding of reality?"

This question connects to the TOK theme of ways of knowing (such as emotion, perception, and reason) and knowledge and the knower. It also invites exploration of how personal experiences—especially those shaped by trauma—can influence the interpretation and dissemination of knowledge, both by the author and by the reader.

simulated question 2,

"How can trauma, as depicted in The Yellow Wallpaper, shape an individual's perception of reality and influence the way knowledge is understood and communicated?"

This keeps the focus on the broader implications of trauma and its relationship to knowledge, without diving too deeply into authorial or character reflections.

the question I simulated with regards to the TOK is the following, 

"How can trauma, as depicted in The Yellow Wallpaper, shape an individual's perception of reality and influence the way knowledge is understood and communicated?" 

This question connects to the TOK theme of ways of knowing (such as emotion, perception, and reason) and knowledge and the knower. It also invites exploration of how personal experiences—especially those shaped by trauma—can influence the interpretation and dissemination of knowledge, both by the author and by the reader.
