Beyond Traditional Teaching: Exploring the Modern Classrooms Project with Kareem Farah
As a high school teacher in inner-city DC, Kareem Farah, founder of the non-profit, Modern Classrooms Project, witnessed chronic absenteeism, emotional dysregulation, and students with a wide range of skill levels in each class, making it impossible for each student to succeed. Today, he’s helping 58,000 educators in hundreds of countries implement technology-agnostic strategies to create classrooms catered to students’ needs, such as giving kids who show signs of emotional dysregulation five minutes to collect themselves and return to the task at hand. In this episode, we explore the impact he is having across classrooms and schools through the Modern Classrooms Project.
