This is a pretty good prezi explaining how to do a TOK presentation. This link also discusses how to extract a Knowledge issue out of a Real life example (stem cells), making it a TOK presentation and not a science one: http://www.toktalk.net/2009/10/31/what-are-knowledge-issues-or-problems-of-knowledge/

Thousands of immigrants seek the southern shores of Italy every summer, when Mediterranean waters in the Strait of Sicily calm sufficiently for small boats to make the crossing, usually from Libya or Tunisia.

Migrants from Africa keep risking their life in order to achieve their objective, to reach European Union and to live in the dream, where there is healthcare, education, job opportunity and etc. Each summer they try to reach Sicily, launching from Tunisia on little boats risking their life. What makes them keep doing it, though they continuously fail.

"The global problem of death in childbirth is a pressing example. Every year, three hundred thousand mothers and more than six million children die around the time of birth, largely in poorer countries. Most of these deaths are due to events that occur during or shortly after delivery. A mother may hemorrhage. She or her baby may suffer an infection. Many babies can't take their first breath without assistance, and newborns, especially those born small, have trouble regulating their body temperature after birth. Simple, lifesaving solutions have been known for decades. They just haven't spread."

math education paradigm

shared by Lawrence Hrubes on 29 Feb 16 - No Cached

HERE’S an apparent paradox: Most Americans have taken high school mathematics, including geometry and algebra, yet a national survey found that 82 percent of adults could not compute the cost of a carpet when told its dimensions and square-yard price.

In fact, what’s needed is a different kind of proficiency, one that is hardly taught at all. The Mathematical Association of America calls it “quantitative literacy.” I prefer the O.E.C.D.’s “numeracy,” suggesting an affinity with reading and writing.

Many students fall by the wayside. It’s not just the difficulty of the classes. They can’t see how such formulas connect with the lives they’ll be leading.

Finally, we talk about how math can help us think about reorganizing the world around us in ways that make more sense. For example, there’s probably nothing more cumbersome than how we measure time: How quickly can you compute 17 percent of a week, calibrated in hours (or minutes, or seconds)? So our class undertook to decimalize time.
