Challenging Teachers, Students, and the Status Quo

Inquiry by Design is a dynamic approach to English language arts built on the premise that no one gets smarter in isolation. Not students. Not teachers.

We partner with school districts to provide dynamic, continual professional development paired with rigorous curriculum materials. By focusing on common curriculum, common observations (Peer Learning Labs) and common artifacts (student work), we help educators achieve measurable improvements in student learning.

Students will become better readers, writers and thinkers at each grade level. They’ll develop the skills and confidence needed to take on challenging texts and tasks as they progress towards college and the workplace.
