1. In what ways may disagreement aid the pursuit of knowledge in the natural and human sciences?
2. “Only seeing general patterns can give us knowledge. Only seeing particular examples can give us understanding.” To what extent do you agree with these assertions?
3. “The possession of knowledge carries an ethical responsibility.” Evaluate this claim.
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.
5. “That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.” (Christopher Hitchens). Do you agree?
6. Can we know when to trust our emotions in the pursuit of knowledge? Consider history and one other area of knowledge.

Any ideas/suggestions on topic choice?

My son prefers 1 & 2, his comments on 5 & 6 are more suitable for students take History HL.

Just his causal comments.

My daughter's teachers say that 3 and 4 are more concrete topics while 1 and 3 are popular ones. I do agree with your son's comments though she prefers 2 and 3.
