IO is a design process that enables teachers to create learning experiences that steward the life of the mind. Teachers are expertly guided through a process to create project-based inquiries, develop assessment, choreograph a complex learning environment and communicate with peers, parents and students.
"Schools ought to be about the life of the mind. They should foster intellectual habits of thought, meaning-making and discourse in all students, rich and poor, gifted and severely ordinary. Intellect, in this light, is not just braininess, and is certainly not the conditioned right answer giving that passes in too much of the public mind as "achievement". More broadly defined, intellect represents the complexity of understanding, critique, and imagination of which the human mind is capable."
