To this day I use tools learned in your class as well as other awesome Loveland teachers when I teach my own child about history, art, math etc. If I can use what I learned 20+ years later and remember (for example) an essay I wrote on Samuel Sewell- then it was true learning as opposed to short-lived memorization that one might use for the sake of a standardized test.
