Chemistry

In addition to a wide range of physics and biology resources, the IBDP Portal offers key chemistry-related resources related to for instance solar cells, material science and quasicrystals (the topic for which Dan Schechtman was awarded the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry).  More generally, there are many clearly indicated overlaps with both Nature of Science and Theory of Knowledge, while specific themes for a Group 4 project and literature-based extended essay in chemistry are highlighted in the corresponding section of Ideas Roadshow’s Extended Essay Guide for Students.

Ideas Roadshow’s IBDP Portal also includes a wide range of resources to explicitly integrate TOK into your Chemistry course, including our TOK Connections Overview Video for Chemistry and TOK Connections Guide for Chemistry.
