Fr. Thomas Kunnumkal SJ introduced the IPP in many schools in India.  He encourages Jesuit schools in India to make learning context based. He highlights that most of our learning is head level learning, the IPP encourages us to make it also a heart level learning, make it experience based, introduce reflection in the classroom. For an experience-based learning reflection is essential, which in turn should be followed by action. Then with the step of evaluation, looking at ‘how it has gone’ students complete the learning cycle. In today’s “learning revolution” technology also should be used effectively to support education.  The IPP is called an “integral paradigm” Continuous formation for teachers is essential, they must learn, unlearn and relearn) 

The Reverend Father Thomas V. Kunnunkal, a well known Jesuit missionary, social and human rights activist and eminent educationist, is one of the pioneers who built the foundations for 
a strong open and distance education system in India.
