What's most interesting about this, I think, is that the whole
design process is fundamentally one of questioning. Questions
like these predominate in that process:
* Should we do this?
* If so, how?
* What impact does that have on the rest of the design?
* Does it make other things easier or harder?
In fact, the essence of creativity is answering self-imposed
questions. Invention is a process of identifying a need and
asking how it can be fulfilled. Answers are the fruit of the
process, but questions are its foundation.
A system that focuses on questioning as the primary
tool for learning therefore stands to have considerable
impact on design processes, as well as most other areas
of human creativity.
