Empowering Education - Kristen Gabehart
About Me:
My name is Kristen Gabehart, an educator with a passion for innovation and a deep commitment to the ever-evolving world of education. Over the past decade, I've dedicated myself to teaching, primarily in challenging, underperforming schools where the need for transformative education is most acute. My journey has taken me to diverse corners of the globe, including my most recent teaching experience at an international school in the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council).
My educational background is rooted in communications, a field that has exposed me to the dynamic worlds of advertising and real estate. These diverse experiences have honed my skills in effective communication, creativity, and adaptability, all of which I now bring to the realm of education.
The fear and pushback I observed among fellow educators regarding integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the classroom inspired me to embark on the journey of writing this book. I realized that in an era of rapid technological advancement, it is essential for us, as educators, to evolve and rethink our teaching methods. Rather than fearing AI, harnessing its potential to enhance and enrich the educational experience is crucial.
This book is not just a collection of ideas; it's a conversation starter for a constantly evolving profession. It's a call to action for educators to embrace change, explore new horizons, and adapt to the needs of the 21st-century learner. Together, let's navigate the shifting educational landscape and empower ourselves and our students to thrive in a world where change is the only constant. Join me on this journey of transformation, where we explore innovative approaches and strategies to shape the future of education.
