Classroom teaching traditionally involved the first and second ‘remembering’ and ‘understanding’ components, while students would be tasked to independently work on the more complex ‘application’, ‘analysis’ and ‘evaluation’, typically through projects and assignments. Creating original work, arguably the pinnacle of academic achievement, had become widely associated with postgraduate study and oftentimes, is viewed as a requisite to earn a degree such as a doctorate. Views on education have since evolved to incorporate a more dynamic process offering students a more interactive learning experience. The ‘Flipped Classroom’ concept, for example, turns Bloom’s Taxonomy on its head by challenging students to apply, analyze, evaluate and create in class after having familiarized themselves with the content independently. This approach demands a re-imagination of the learning space, a departure from the traditional auditorium intended for a one-to-many style of communication. The nature of the students’ investigative activities requires the accommodation of high levels of interaction and formation of small groups. As my students prepare to handle a higher pace and higher complexity of learning these next few months, I want to offer them a transformed space on Fridays through AllSTAAR Training, Essay Bootcamp, Opinion Courtroom, Conclusions Under Construction and Delicious Content Baking. These kits not only will serve my current forty-five students but I will save them for the years to follow. A few items were intended for students to keep, to help them recall and remember through the weeks what was learned during that day.
