It is one thing to ask students to think outside the box. It is quite another to ask them to build outside the box – way outside, like another country.That is just what Great Bend High School Technology Teacher Jake Hofflinger asked of his students.And boy, was he impressed with the results.“I had three students do an outstanding job on a recent assignment,” Hofflinger said. “I have been teaching this activity all 15 years of my career and this is the best one I have seen.”The course is Production Blueprint Reading and the assignment was to create a Worlds Fair Pavilion for a country of their choosing.The students, acting as an architectural firm, performed research, created scale plan and elevation drawings and constructed a scale model from foam board.
