In five years time, do not expect nor desire my students to recall any fact or piece of historical data from my class or any of my lessons. Instead, I want them to recall what they decided to learn more about on their own. I want them to know that in high school they were encouraged to think and taught how to discover new things that were of interest to them. I want them to read current events and know how to relate it to other arenas of their life and knowledge they have already gained.
In ten years time, I want my students to get it. At the point when their frontal lobes are fully developed and they have more life experience, I want them to look back to my class and think, "Holy crap, now I see what he was doing there. He planted seeds of continued learning and independent thought."
