S5 E1: National Geographic Grosvenor Teacher Fellow Kim Young

9/23/2024

0 Comments

 
Season 5 of Change the Narrative is a series of conversations with Lindblad Expeditions/National Geographic Grosvenor Teacher Fellows. These teachers from across North America went on expedition to places like Antarctica, Galapagos, the Arctic and others, to learn about the natural world and bring back inspirational learning experiences for their schools and colleagues. Find out how the experience changed them forever, and their tips and resources for bringing inquiry, wonder, and purpose back to your learning space.
Kim Young is a long-time public school social studies educator who is passionate about cultivating her students' identities as explorers and global citizens.  While researching innovative educational pedagogy and new ideas for lesson plans always beat out other items on her to-do list, she draws most of her inspiration for classroom activities from first-hand experiences in the field. As a 2017 Grosvenor Teacher Fellow, 2019 National Geographic Explorer, and 2020 National Geographic Education Fellow, Young worked to scale curricular innovation around student activism through design thinking and technology. When she can’t get into the field, she works on projects for Earthrise Education, a non-profit focused on creating student-centered satellite-based investigations for environmental and human rights.
