It took a life-threatening condition to jolt chemistry teacher Ramsey Musallam out of ten years of “pseudo-teaching” to understand the true role of the educator: to cultivate curiosity. In a fun and personal talk, Musallam gives 3 rules to spark imagination and learning, and get students excited about how the world works: curiosity comes first, embrace the messiness of trial and error in learning, and practice reflection to refine and revise understanding. Six-and-a-half-minutes of your time well spent!
