This document outlines an approach for cultivating 21st century learning skills in the classroom. It discusses preparing the learning environment by creating spaces for both face-to-face, blended, and online learning. It also emphasizes the importance of passion-based and student-centered learning approaches. Specific strategies are provided, such as implementing collaborative research projects where students work together to identify problems, ask questions, collect and analyze data, and present their findings. The overall framework presented follows the metaphor of cultivating a garden, with sections devoted to planning, preparing, planting, nurturing, and harvesting the garden to develop students' skills for success in today's world.
