Alan Hamacher

IB Coordinator at Clearwater Central Catholic High School, USA

I find the TOK text to be relevant, up-to-date, engaging and useful. I like having a digital text, because I don't have to assign accountabilities or worry about returning books, and I love that Kognity gives me the reading report, so I don't have to assign time-consuming reading check-point assignments.

Kelley Donovan

IB Coordinator and TOK Teacher at Robert. E. Fitch High School

I can't imagine teaching TOK without Kognity.
