I absolutely love the work of Amy Burvall and the Theory of Knowledge course. I pulled two of my favorite excerpts from the Student Voices video (http://youtu.be/SU72SpObYKY).

We are known by the promises we make to others. We are known for the promises that we keep too. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) is a microcosm of both, and I am glad that it exists. This story isn’t one about a single person, or a single school, but rather …
I like thinking about the "the problem we are trying to solve" without focusing on the side effects of our solution. Too often we are looking for silver bullets that will transform education without thinking about what the bullet is really meant to do.
