"Time Innovative teacher" Rachna Nath was recognized by the magazine as part of its 2022 List of Innovative teachers - an accolade conferred on stand out teachers who improve the learning experience for kids, or solve a problem faced by schools.
With plethora of awards to her credit, my guest Rachna is also a
- NASA Solar System Ambassador
- National Geographic Educator
- Grant writer, Fullbright Scholar
- Innovator, Entrepreneur
This inspiring educator's work is serving a two fold purpose - creating high school innovators, grant writers and more; also in the process, elevating what teachers could do just like she has carved a niche for herself.
In this delightful dialogue, Rachna and I talk about
- Her journey with Science, Tech, Engineering and Math areas
- Each of the hats she adorns from NASA Solar System Ambassador to a company co-founder herself, and everything else in between..
- Research opportunities for high schoolers, career pathways
- STEA(Art)M and girls, boys - how they get involved
- Bringing the best out of students who seem uninterested, yet are full of potential
- How she found her true purpose as a teacher
- Why is scientific enquiry significant and how to bring it into the curriculum
- How she helps kids patent their ideas
- Grant writing as a segue to innovation
- Role of support system around a student and helping them thrive
- Rachna as an innovator and co-founder of Oxi Blast
- Non STEM oriented students working with Rachna and their role in creation
