Code of Conduct
ToK instructors Mr. Malone and Mrs. King, in their introduction to ToK at Poudre High School, state the following with respect to ToK:
"The purpose is not to destroy value systems or to judge one another as right or wrong, but to teach you to evaluate your knowledge claims, as well as (the claims of) others, by learning to support them."
What refinements might be made to Charlottetown Rural's Code of Conduct to ensure that class discussions and presentations are in keeping with both the Code of Conduct and the goals of ToK?
In particular, what additions would you make to lines 1, 2 and the concluding line, to support a safe environment for the exchange of ideas in ToK?
