1. What Is the TOK Exhibition?
The TOK Exhibition is the internal component of your TOK assessment and accounts for 33% of your final TOK grade. It involves choosing three objects and writing a 950-word commentary that links them to one of the IB’s TOK prompts. (revisiondojo.com, revisiondojo.com)
2. Marking & Moderation Process
- The exhibition is marked internally by your TOK teacher, then externally moderated by the IB to ensure global standardization.
- Only the written component is assessed—the in-person display or presentation is not graded. (revisiondojo.com, revisiondojo.com)
3. Core Grading Criteria
IB evaluates your TOK Exhibition commentary using a rubric focused on:
- Justification of Objects — How well each object connects to the chosen prompt.
- Depth of Analysis — Insightful discussion of TOK concepts through your objects.
- Coherence & Structure — Logical flow from object description to conceptual interpretation.
- Critical Engagement — Demonstrating different perspectives and knowledge questions.
- Clarity in Communication — Precise, compelling, reader‑friendly writing. (revisiondojo.com, )
