As a DP student, you can use Toddle to complete your TOK exhibition requirements, including selecting your prompt, showcasing your objects and submitting your exhibition proposal, submitting commentaries for review, receiving feedback, tracking your deadlines, and much more!

In this article, we will cover:

The TOK exhibition dashboard is where you will see an overview of your exhibition progress. To reach here, click on ‘Theory of Knowledge - Exhibition’ (under DP Core) on your homepage.

💡 Please note that the TOK Exhibition card will appear on your homepage only if your school administrator has invited you to the TOK Exhibition module on Toddle.

On the landing page, you will see your supervisor’s name, status of your exhibition, overall progress as indicated by your supervisor, and a list of upcoming deadlines set by your TOK coordinator.

To guide you through your TOK exhibition journey, the ‘Guidance’ tab at the top stores all TOK exhibition learning material shared by your school coordinator and those provided by Toddle.

The first step for you as a student entails putting together a proposal for your TOK exhibition. The ‘Proposal’ section on Toddle is where you can select an IA prompt from the list provided by IB and choose one of the TOK themes. Next, use the ‘Add object’ button to document your 3 TOK objects.

You will be able to add a title for the object, mention its source, and provide an explanation for your choice using additional remarks. Feel free to hover over the objects to edit or delete them as needed.

To have a one-on-one conversation with your supervisor about any TOK exhibition element, simply click on the comment icon located above the respective field. If you notice a red badge next to any section in the left pane, it indicates that the teacher has left a comment for you or made updates in that section. Additionally, a red dot on the comment icon will tell you the exact field where a comment has been added. This behavior applies to tracking comments in other sections as well.

Once your proposal is approved by the supervisor, you will receive a notification under the bell icon on your homepage. Additionally, the top bar of your screen will consistently display the current status of your TOK exhibition as determined by your supervisor.

The ‘Reflection space’ is where you can record your learning and reflections throughout your investigation process. Click on the ‘Add’ button to add a new reflection. You may document reflections as notes, photos, videos, links, and more. If you wish to make any changes, use the three dot-menu to edit or delete. Your supervisor can view these reflections and comment on each one.

Under the ‘Exhibition commentary’ section, submit draft and final versions of the commentary for your supervisor’s review. If provided by your coordinator, you will see an option to use a template to draft your exhibition commentary. Additionally, the integration with Turnitin allows you and your supervisor to run a plagiarism check on your work.

💡Please note that Turnitin integration must be enabled by your school administrator for you to do a plagiarism check on submitted files.

Additionally, if the setting is enabled by your school administrator, your submitted files will be automatically locked within 15 minutes of upload. Alternatively, Once you have submitted the commentaries, your supervisor can lock the section. You will not be able to make any changes to the locked file unless your supervisor unlocks it for you.

Furthermore, you can easily check if your supervisor has annotated your commentaries by clicking on the bell icon on your homepage. As you click on the notification, you will be taken to the Exhibition commentary page, where you can find out where your supervisor has provided feedback by looking for a red dot next to the annotated file and a notification badge on the left pane.

To further enhance your TOK exhibition journey, Toddle has built-in features that make keeping track of your progress an easy task. You can view your overall progress as indicated by your supervisor in the top right corner of the screen. Further, click on the purple icon in the right pane to view the interim deadlines set by your school’s TOK coordinator and the ones that have been marked as achieved by your supervisor.

Throughout your TOK exhibition journey, you will receive notifications when your supervisor makes a change in the status of your overall progress.

The review log is a new addition that promotes collaboration between you and your teachers by letting you easily request a review from your supervisor and seek their feedback on your work.

You will receive notifications and see numbered badges to stay updated on any comments/edits to these review requests made by your supervisor. You have the option to comment, resolve, or delete these requests. Simply click on the ‘Resolved’ tab to see the requests that have been resolved.

Once you have added 3 objects and submitted your final commentary, your supervisor can mark your TOK exhibition as complete after which no edits can be made to any of the TOK exhibition elements. This update will appear at the top of your screen and you will see your exhibition status as ‘Completed’.

You will also be notified about this update which will be visible under the ‘Notifications’ on your homepage.
