I will update the blog every most days. If you miss class or fail to write down the homework, checking this site should be the first thing you do.

We will talk about the syllabus next class. It is pretty straightforward (read: boring). Suffice to say, you will learn things in this class and you will be graded.

1st period: Begin working on the “Introducing Yourself” worksheet and name plate.

2nd period: On to shared and personal knowledge.

What is TOK?

Homework: Read this comic and be prepared to discuss the Backfire Effect in class next time.
