Question to Learn (Q2L)
A World Education Online Initiative
Learning from the world, to improve the world.

WHAT QUESTION TO LEARN IS
​
• Question to Learn is a method for learning from the real world environment by questioning information, sources, and claims — instead of accepting stories, authority, or belief.
• It does not tell you what to think or what to believe.
• It helps you learn how to question.
• Questioning is not opposing, rejecting, or rebelling.
• It is the process of checking what is true, what is assumed, and what is claimed.
• Understanding comes from learning from the real world environment — not from systems, narratives, or persuasion.
​
WHY QUESTION TO LEARN EXISTS
​
• Most people are taught what to think, what to memorise, or what to accept — but not how to question the world they live in.
• As a result, information is often accepted without being checked against direct observation or experience.
• Question to Learn exists to introduce the ability to learn directly from the real world environment by questioning information, sources, and claims.
• When questioning is applied properly, understanding comes from what the world actually shows — not from interpretation, authority, or persuasion.
​
WHAT THIS IS NOT
​
• Question to Learn is not a belief system, ideology, or set of conclusions.
• It does not promote political positions, cultural narratives, or institutional viewpoints.
• It is not about replacing one explanation with another, or asking people to accept a different story.
• Question to Learn is a method for questioning information and learning directly from the real world environment — without authority, persuasion, or interpretation guiding what to think.
​
SAFEGUARDING & RESPONSIBILITY
​
• Question to Learn is about adults sharing information with other adults, so learning can reach children responsibly through parents, teachers, and carers.
• This work is shared responsibly. It does not involve private, unsupervised, or direct engagement with children.
• All materials are to be shared through responsible adults — such as parents, teachers, and carers.
• The purpose is understanding, not influence.
• Safety, clarity, and responsibility come first in every action.
​
HOW THIS IS SHARED
​
• Question to Learn is shared through written materials designed to help people practise questioning information and learning from the real world environment.
• These materials are intended to be read, reflected on, and shared openly between adults, and passed on safely to children through responsible adults, without instruction, persuasion, or interpretation being imposed.
• Sharing is encouraged in ways that allow people to engage at their own pace, question freely, and decide for themselves what they accept or reject.
• The role of the material is not to provide answers, but to support the process of learning through questioning.
MATERIALS & NEXT STEPS
​
• Question to Learn is shared through a small set of written materials designed to help people practise questioning information and learning from the real world environment.
• These materials include:
• The Amazing Children: Journey to a Better World
• The Question to Learn Children’s Questionnaire
• The Children’s Bookmark
• Supporting Question to Learn flyers and posters
• Question to Learn Movement Guidelines
The Movement Guidelines document defines the purpose, boundaries, and responsibilities of Question to Learn (Q2L). It explains what the method is, what it is not, and how it is to be shared responsibly between adults and educational environments.
• Schools Information Letter
• Schools Letter Support
​These documents are designed to be downloaded and shared with schools and teachers to formally introduce Question to Learn (Q2L) and support its inclusion within educational settings.
​
• All materials are intended to be read, reflected on, and shared openly between adults, and passed on safely to children through responsible adults, without instruction, persuasion, or interpretation being imposed.
The next step is simple: read, question, observe, and learn from the world directly.

Official Question to Learn Platform
​
Question to Learn (Q2L) is part of the wider World Education Online (WEO) framework.
While this page provides an overview of its purpose, structure, safeguarding, and materials, the full Question to Learn platform exists as a dedicated space where the official downloadable resources are hosted and maintained.
The Q2L website contains the complete set of materials, including educational PDFs, movement guidelines, school communication documents, and supporting information designed to help adults responsibly introduce and share the method.
​
If you wish to explore the materials directly, download them, or share them with others — including schools and teachers — the next step is to visit the official Question to Learn platform.
Learning begins with questioning.
The world is the real school.
