Every student involved in DCC activities got the challenge to always make it lively and bright with their innovative and creative activities as the response of the teacher’s assignment. Besides, the teacher herself, in this case the researcher, had to always think of creative and critical ways of finding challenging assignments that pursue the students to have creative and critical thinking habits.
