Hear from a Math Teacher Doing YPAR in Schools
Karmel Abutaleb, a Secondary/College Math & Computer Science teacher at Facing History New Tech High School shares her YPAR experience. She has taught YPAR for two years in her math classes. In the video, she is interviewed by Maggie Rahill, an English teacher at John Marshall School of Engineering. Maggie is new to YPAR and will be teaching YPAR for the first time this 2023-2024 school year. She has many important questions for Karmel, asking: What would you tell a teacher thinking about implementing YPAR in their classroom? Tell me about a recent YPAR lesson. How do you integrate YPAR into the subject-based standards that you have to teach? How do you make YPAR fit with all the things that you have to do? How has YPAR influenced you and your approach to teaching?
