Hello everyone,

My name is Izzeddin Qasem, and I’m from Palestine.
I’m a computer science teacher and a disability rights advocate.

My favorite part of my job is helping students — especially those with learning or physical challenges — discover their potential using technology.
I developed Faseeh, an inclusive Arabic language learning tool accessible to blind users and learners with disabilities.

I live with a minor motor disability, so inclusion in education is not just a concept for me — it’s a lived experience.

In my free time, I love writing, mentoring youth, and working on community tech solutions.
Looking forward to learning from all of you

I’m Izzeddin from Palestine.
My project Faseeh is Arabic learning app for blind users and anyone who loves the language

Why is it “green”?

• list item No printing

• list item No physical textbooks

• list itemNo extra devices

• list item Minimal energy use through voice-only interaction

@Sanaa Podcasting is a powerful tool for student expression. Your use of it to promote reflection is a creative and forward-thinking approach. I believe this could be useful even for language learning. Thanks for sharing

I’m beyond grateful for every vote, message, and moment of support you’ve sent my way. Your encouragement means everything.

Being part of this amazing community of educators has been inspiring.
I’ve learned, connected, and grown with teachers from around the world each one bringing something unique and powerful to the table.

This wasn’t just a competition.
It was a celebration of ideas.
A space where we all stood up for accessible, inclusive, and meaningful education.

To everyone who shared their project, voted, or cheered others on...thank you.
You made this experience unforgettable.

And now, as we move into the final stage of jury evaluation, I’m rooting for each and every one of us.
Let’s keep pushing boundaries and lifting each other higher.
We’ve already made something incredible...together.

@Hira-Tayyaba I really liked the idea of exposing students to diverse role models. This approach helps students build ambition and relate learning to real-world success. Excellent work

Your project connects geometry with real life. His offline app, The Geometry of Life, teaches Pythagoras’ and Thales’ theorems using examples from biology. It’s free, interactive, and accessible—making math meaningful and practical.

Hello everyone
I'm Izzeddin Qasem from Palestine. I’m excited to introduce my project, “Faseeh,” which was developed to support inclusive Arabic language education using assistive technology and artificial intelligence.

What is Faseeh?
Faseeh is a digital platform that teaches Arabic grammar and poetic meter (prosody) to both blind and sighted students. It uses:
• AI to analyze poetic patterns
• Screen readers and voice interaction
• A flipped classroom method for independent learning
• Braille-compatible materials

Why is it important?
Students with visual impairments rarely have access to creative language learning tools. Faseeh changes that by offering equal access to the structure and beauty of Arabic poetry.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and exchange ideas.
Let’s work together to make education more inclusive everywhere.

Thank you

Very relevant in low-resource areas. WhatsApp voice notes were useful for my blind students. When used with intention, even basic tools can create big impact

@Ridafatima95 You raised a critical issue. In my own work, I had to design tools that work offline or with screen readers for students who have limited access. Inclusion begins with accessibility—thank you for highlighting this

@Zakiasoomro project brings algebra to life. By using AI tools and low-cost local resources, she helped students understand factorization in a practical way. Her approach builds both math skills and digital confidence.

@Erum Zahid
Great work, Erum. Your project reflects a strong understanding of what motivates students today.
Gamification is not just a trend it’s a tool that, when used right like you did, increases attention, participation, and enjoyment.
I appreciate how your classroom becomes a space where learning feels like a challenge students want to take, not avoid.

Your methods can easily be replicated by others. Clear, simple, and powerful. Well done.

AI chatbots can support learning, not replace it.
The key lies in how they are used:
• Use them to spark ideas, not write essays.
• Let them generate quiz questions, but let students solve and reflect.
• Guide students in verifying and challenging AI outputs.
When students see AI as a tool—not a crutch—they learn to think critically about the answers, not just receive them.
The challenge isn’t the tool. It’s how we teach its purpose.
Empower students to ask better questions, not just get quicker answers.
So yes, teachers should use AI.
But always with intention, transparency, and room for human judgment.
That’s how we build thinkers, not just users.

@HAZAR0c50a82765 Thank you for your heartfelt words.

Your message captures the true spirit of this experience connection, growth, and mutual respect.

It’s been an honor to share this journey with dedicated educators like you.

Wishing you continued success and impact in all that you do.

@Anum-Rafay project shows the real power of simple, inclusive tools.

By introducing Google Lens, she gave students a way to explore and understand the world around them without pressure.

This tech helped students become more confident, focused, and independent especially those who may struggle in traditional settings.

It’s a strong example of how inclusive education doesn’t need to be complicated to make a big difference.

@Noor-Fatima Thank you deeply for this powerful and thoughtful feedback.

Your words captured exactly what I hoped "Faseeh" would represent a tool built from the ground up for everyone, not just adapted after the fact.

I truly believe accessibility benefits all learners, not just those with disabilities. Your recognition of that means a lot.

Let’s keep building education that includes, respects, and empowers all.

Your project shows how game-based teaching can transform the classroom. Her use of games increased student motivation, active participation, and improved learning outcomes. A practical and engaging approach to better education.

@HINA539741cd527 project highlights the power of inclusive tech in math education. By using tools like magnifiers and speech apps, she ensures every student has equal access to learning. A strong step toward truly barrier-free classrooms.
