What is TOK Anyway?

TOK is the ideas of knowing how and why we know things in this world. Why people do what they do, why they think what they think, why they say what they say, and the analysis that comes with this knowledge. It is the study of why people understand what they understand and how the brain communicates that.

Analysis of Knowers

If I were to pick one area of Ways of Knowing and Areas of Knowing to describe myself I would have to pick Emotion and Arts. I've always grown up being encouraged to express my feelings about subjects and to voice how I feel in certain situations. I am a strong believer of opening up and talking about problems to solve issues I am faced with. Emotions form a majority of my thoughts and decisions that I make in my life.
Arts is also a large factor in my thought process and also my emotions in life. Music is a huge part of my life and singing is probably considered my most precious activity that I have. Singing causes certain emotions to come up and helps me face the problems that I have in my life. It also forms a healthy outlet for me to let out how I am feeling. Music is my most prized asset in life.

This video represents the emotion that music brings me and how I fight through my problems.
