A Google result becomes TOK-ready only when you turn it into a specific case, a knowledge issue, and a usable claim.
From Google Result to TOK-Ready Example
Start With a Factual Filter
A Google result is not a TOK example yet. It is only a doorway. To make it TOK-ready, you need to move from information to interpretation. That means identifying what happened, why it matters for knowledge, and how it could support or challenge a claim.
Apply a Knowledge Lens
Step one is the factual filter. Ask: what is the specific case? Who is involved? What happened? When did it happen? What source explains it clearly? If the answer is still broad, like 'AI is biased' or 'history changes', the example is not ready. TOK needs a particular situation, not a theme.
Test the Claim
Step two is the knowledge lens. Look for the part of the case that involves knowledge itself. Did evidence change? Did a method fail? Did experts disagree? Did interpretation depend on perspective? Did a model simplify reality? Did language shape what people believed? This is the moment where the example becomes useful for TOK.
